VIENNA, March 5 (Reuters) - OPEC ministers backed a plan for
OPEC states and other producers including Russia to cut oil
output by an additional 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd)
provided Moscow joined in, two OPEC sources said.
OPEC ministers were meeting in Vienna on Thursday ahead of
crunch talks on Friday with other oil producers, including
Russia, which has so far been reluctant to add to the existing
cuts of 2.1 million bpd by the group known of OPEC+.
