Trump may pursue accountability! OPEC announces production increase, international oil prices are feared to drop to a bottom of $60.

After Trump announced reciprocal tariffs, inflation in the United States rose again; surprisingly, international oil prices fell. In the last three days, the price of Brent and West Texas Intermediate crude oil has dropped by $10 per barrel, potentially reaching $60.

To reduce geopolitical risks, OPEC is considering the development of new energy sources.
