April 29, Fineko/abc.az. According to Canadian newspaper The Globe & Mail, after the possible withdrawal of the UAE from OPEC, Venezuela could take a similar step, and this may happen under the influence of U.S. President Donald Trump.

ABC.AZ reports that the publication notes that Trump criticizes the influence of OPEC on world prices and seeks to reduce the cost of fuel before the congressional elections. Amid the conflict with Iran, the prices of gasoline and diesel fuel have already increased in the U.S.

According to the newspaper, Venezuela, which has the largest oil reserves, may be the next candidate to leave the organization with the appropriate political will of Washington.
