By imposing sanctions on a number of major oil-producing countries, the United States provides an unfair competitive advantage to its own oil companies and expands markets.

If we talk about global oil production, then in 2015, Venezuela, Iran and Russia produced 21,75% of the daily production in the world.
Olga Lebedinskaya emphasized that as a result political Washington’s activity, a fifth of the world's oil is under sanctions.
