In response to a question whether the OPEC meeting will discuss the non-compliance by some OPEC members of quotas , HE the Minister noted that all topics will be studied with the rest of the members and made clear that the OPEC Secretariat is in turn considering the market conditions , but the issue is currently dominated by the financial situation in the euro zone and what is expected of the global GDP, up or down, where these two factors can constitute the greatest weight for the oil supplies.
