Iraq, OPEC stress need to coordinate to stabilise prices

CAIRO (Reuters) – Iraq’s Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani and OPEC Secretary General Haitham Al Ghais stressed the need to coordinate among oil-exporting nations to ensure prices do not fluctuate and impact both exporter and consumer countries, the Iraqi government said in a statement.

Iraq is one of the founding members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
