Algerian Minister of Energy and Mining Chakib Khelil was quoted by the Algerian News Agency as saying on the sidelines of a meeting held yesterday in Brussels between OPEC and the European Union that the continuation of high prices of oil despite of the decision of Saudi Arabia to increase its oil production and its readiness to make additional supplies to meet the demands provides a clear evidence that OPEC should not be held responsible of neither the rise of prices of oil nor the fluctuation of the prices.
