Russian President Vladimir Putin hosted Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani in the Kremlin on Tuesday and praised cooperation between their countries at the OPEC+ group of top oil producers, saying it had helped to stabilise energy markets.
“We coordinate work within the framework of OPEC+ and do this very successfully with the aim of stabilizing the situation on world markets. Overall, we succeed in this, and I hope we will continue to work with you in the future,” Putin told Sudani at the start of their first ever meeting.
