Central Bank: Russian Economy's Dependence on Oil Prices Discreasing
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Market prices for benchmark Brent and WTI crude dropped to a 12-year low in mid-January, sliding below the historic level of $30 a barrel due to oversupply in the market.

However, crude oil prices rose on Friday, with both Brent and WTI crude trading above $30.5 per barrel, according to commodity futures price quotes.

The leaders discussed "the current situation on the global oil market, as well as further development of bilateral cooperation in politics, trade and economy," the press service said in a statement.

The talk was initiated by Venezuela.
