(27.06.2022)

„I had a call with MbZ,“ Macron was heard telling U.S. President Joe Biden on the sidelines of the G7 summit, using shorthand for UAE leader Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahyan. „He told me two things. I‘m at a maximum, maximum (production capacity). This is what he claims.“

„And then he said (the) Saudis can increase by 150 (thousands barrels per day). Maybe a little bit more, but they don‘t have huge capacities before six months‘ time,“ Macron said.
