United Arab Emirates to quit oil cartel Opec

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) will exit the OPEC and OPEC+ oil-producing alliances in the coming month after nearly 60 years of membership, citing a need for flexibility to expand production capacity and meet long-term global energy demand. Analysts note this departure weakens OPEC by reducing its capacity by approximately 15% and could trigger increased oil market volatility, potential further member exits, and broader geopolitical shifts in the Middle East oil sector.
