The downward trend of global crude oil prices has brought them down at least 75% over the past 18 months, putting so much pressure on producers whose economies are deeply dependent on crude oil revenues. To tackle the price slump, major producers including Saudi Arabia, Russia and Iran has decided to take measures to prevent further fall in prices. In the latest move, Tehran and Riyadh hosted meetings of oil and energy officials from major crude oil suppliers to the world market. The Tehran meeting was attended by Iranian Minister of Petroleum Bijan Zangeneh who hosted oil ministers from Venezuela, Qatar and Iraq. The meeting ended with an understanding to freeze crude exports at January levels. Many Iranian papers highlighted the Tehran meeting on their front pages.
In another development, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution addressing large number of people from East Azerbaijan Province, called for maximum turnout in late February elections. The leader stressed that a parliament fearful of America would lead the nation to misery.
