Trump has demanded OPEC to lower oil prices for the second consecutive day, and Putin stated that he will talk with Trump to discuss Energy issues.

On Friday, USA President Trump once again called for the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to lower oil prices, hoping to undermine Russia's financial revenue from oil production and help end the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Putin had previously responded that he was ready to meet with Trump to discuss Crude Oil Product prices and Other Energy Sources issues. After a 1% drop on Thursday, oil prices continued to decrease slightly on Friday.
