MOSCOW, Oct 23 (PRIME) -- Sanctions against Iran have influenced the global oil market, but it will stabilize sooner or later, Moscow and Washington are the beneficiaries of the step, U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton said in an interview with Ekho Moskvy radio station late on Monday.
“The importance of this major change in Tehran’s behavior has been our priority, and it’s true that Russia as an exporter of oil has benefited from price increases – so have American producers – but our overall objective is to put as much pressure as we can on Iran and keep global oil prices down,” Bolton said.
In May, U.S. President Donald Trump said that Washington would quit from the Iranian nuclear deal and would resume sanctions against the country which is one of the world’s largest oil producers.
