00:00Could oil prices hold the key to ending the war in Ukraine?
00:03According to U.S. President Donald Trump, the answer is a resounding yes.
00:08Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos,
00:11Trump boldly claimed that pressuring OPEC to lower oil prices
00:15could immediately bring an end to Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
00:19OPEC, a bloc of 12 oil-rich nations, has immense power to influence oil prices,
00:25but would they comply with such demands?
00:27Trump believes they can and must.
00:30Trump also suggested ramping up domestic oil production to push global prices down.
00:36This strategy, combined with economic pressure on Russia, could be his plan for peace.
00:41Ukrainian President Zelensky agrees that energy is central to security,
00:46but the Kremlin insists otherwise,
00:48claiming their actions are about national security, not oil.
00:52Trump's vision of peace includes direct talks with Putin
00:55and even new tariffs and sanctions on Russia.
00:58Yet, many remain skeptical.
01:00Could this strategy work?
01:02Or is it just another bold claim?
01:04One thing is certain.
01:06Energy plays a massive role in global conflicts.
01:08Could lower oil prices truly pave the way for peace?
