Bloomberg points out that the rise in prices affected by the unstable situation in Nigeria, Iraq and Kuwait, where there was a strike of oil industry workers.. And in the situation is not affected, including the failure of the Doha negotiations, where the OPEC countries and the major manufacturers have not been able to agree on the freezing level of production at the January level.
