(Reuters) - Iraq's oil ministry spokesman said that an oil price above $80 is "a positive indicator" but needs long term stability.

The oil ministry cited Asim Jihad on its Telegram channel as also saying that Iraq aims to achieve the highest financial revenues by committing to the OPEC+ agreement.

He added that the challenges of the global oil market are still present due to not fully containing the coronavirus and its variants.

Earlier this month, OPEC+ stuck to its agreement of increasing production by 400,000 bpd a month as it unwinds production cuts.

Now they can produce those nukes that Obama and Kerry want them to have so badly.

hello
a bakery near my house has increased the price of bread. ok, no problem for me, I will give up their bread and buy more fruit. it will make me healthier. while the bakery will make less profit despite the increase in prices. and in the future I will not return to them for shopping. a similar situation with oil. at one point the price will again be $ 30. therefore, OPEC has very little time left to bring the price back to the estimated $ 75.
Do you have plans for higher fruit price?
lets go brandon.. sleepy joe is the cause of high oil prices.. he dismantled US energy independence with his leftist nonsense econ politics
Then, he is not sleeping that much… no?
how far
Does Iraq also know that global inflation is not so much of a good indicator?👀There needs to be a balance in Dd and Ss 🌝
They sell oil and they want better prices. This is natural. Global inflation should be concern to folks responsible for global inflation. Hint: inflation is produced by money-printing.
$150+ would be a better indicator. Tic-toc.
High oil price is an indicator of sheer stupidity, reigning in US at the moment.
I'm poor and stupid I like NASCAR go Brandon
