Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman called for stabilization in the energy sector during a visit to Russia. According to Al Arabiya, he stated that 'The situation we’re going through now does make a point here, which is the world needs every molecule of energy, and every form of stabilization to this energy, because without energy security, you will lose sustainability.' He also said, 'There are so many moving parts, there are so many unknowns, there are things that you think have become a reality, but then you wake up the next morning, and the reality is no longer a reality.' Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, according to Al Arabiya, said the oil demand outlook was uncertain but added that OPEC+ was able to offset global changes in the energy sector. Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman and other top OPEC officials visited the St Petersburg International Economic Forum, according to Al Jazeera.
