Global price reaches nine-month high after decision is announced.
The price of oil affects nearly everyone – in terms of living costs and how much we pay for things like food and basic goods.
That is why Saudi Arabia and Russia’s decision to keep oil production cuts in place is being felt globally, with prices of the commodity rising worldwide.
Both nations have their own domestic reasons for their decisions.

But how much is geopolitics influencing Moscow and Riyadh’s oil policy?
Or is it simply economics and business – to make more money?
