The Kuwaiti and Russian energy ministers will aim to improve Russia’s cooperation with the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, Kuwait’s Sheikh Ahmad al-Abdullah al-Sabah said Tuesday.
He said after a meeting with Energy Minister Sergei Shmatko that he “hopes cooperation between Russia and OPEC will be better than in the past.”
Shmatko said he hoped for further talks with OPEC after previous initiatives “didn’t find a positive reaction.”
Al-Sabah also sought an accord on the use of nuclear power with Russia “in the near future,” he said at the meeting.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
