President Donald Trump said on Monday that OPEC had not pressed him to consider asking US producers to reduce their output as a way to support oil prices depressed by an economic downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The president said that OPEC had not approached him with such a suggestion but said that US oil production had already fallen. “I think it’s happening automatically but nobody’s asked me that question yet so we’ll see what happens,” the president told a press briefing. Major oil producers including Saudi Arabia and Russia are likely to agree to cut production at a Thursday meeting but only if the United States joins the effort, three OPEC+ sources told Reuters.
