President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Thursday to claim that Russia and Saudi Arabia agreed to a compromise to end the ongoing oil price war after a discussion between President Vladimir Putin and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. There’s just one problem — Russia is denying both the agreement and the fact that a call between Putin and the crown prince even took place.
Trump tweeted that he spoke to his "friend" — Prince Mohammed — and that he expects “they will be cutting back approximately 10 Million Barrels, and maybe substantially more which, if it happens, will be GREAT for the oil & gas industry!”
