Putin: High Oil Prices Could Influence Inflation in Leading Economies
ST. PETERSBURG — Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) that high oil prices could have an impact on inflation in leading economies, including the United States.
Speaking at the forum's plenary session, Putin said, "Right now, if oil prices remain on high, it is expensive, it will actually affect the entire chain of economic interaction. Most probably, it will influence inflation of the leading economies, including inflation in the United States. And this is the basic, absolutely fundamental condition of stability of the American currency."
The 29th SPIEF is taking place from June 3-6. Its program is dedicated to shaping a new model of global development amid the ongoing transformation of the world economy.
In a separate remark, Putin addressed Russia's own economic structure, noting that the country's dependence on oil and gas revenues has decreased significantly in recent years. "The dependence of the Russian economy and the Russian budget on oil and gas revenues declined significantly in recent years — not during the time related to sanctions but simply over the recent years, in a natural way," he said.
Putin added that while the oil and gas component of Russia's GDP was above 40% previously, it now stands at about 23%. "The difference is tremendous," he stressed.
How this outlet told it
A framing line is our reading of that outlet's own text — an interpretation, not a quotation and not a fact we assert. Check it against what the outlet published.
AI-extracted; can misattribute a claim — see Methodology.
Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
