Russia will remain in OPEC+ following the United Arab Emirates decision to exit the oil-producing alliance. The UAE exit on Tuesday follows an energy crisis linked to the Iran war. Investors face volatility as the group, which controls 50% of global supply, loses its fourth-largest producer.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday morning that Moscow views OPEC+ as essential for energy market stability. Peskov noted the format helps minimize fluctuations in Brent Crude Oil prices during global market turmoil.
