Kazakhstan: OPEC+ to discuss Trump’s push to boost US oil output

Kazakhstan said OPEC+ will discuss US President Donald Trump’s efforts to ramp up US oil production and take a coordinated stance on the matter.

"In the nearest future, a meeting is planned at the level of OPEC+ representatives, at which the organization's policy regarding the current situation will be discussed, including US plans to increase production volumes, and a coordinated position will be adopted," Kazakh Energy Minister Almasadam Satkaliyev told a briefing, according to Reuters.

The comments come after Trump last week outlined a sweeping plan to boost oil and gas production, including declaring a national energy emergency to fast-track permits and roll back environmental protections.
