WASHINGTON, April 13 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump
said on Monday the OPEC+ group of oil producers is looking to
cut output by 20 million barrels per day, double the 10 million
barrels agreed to a day earlier.
"Having been involved in the negotiations, to put it mildly,
the number that OPEC+ is looking to cut is 20 Million Barrels a
day, not the 10 Million that is generally being reported," Trump
said on Twitter.
The group, comprising the Organization of the Petroleum
Exporting Countries, Russia and other countries, said
Sunday it had agreed to reduce output by 9.7 million barrels per
day (bpd) for May and June, after four days of talks and
following pressure from Trump to arrest the price decline.
