Saudi Arabia and other major Persian Gulf oil producers have so far resisted U.S. calls to increase output as prices have surged amid the crisis in Ukraine and concerns about possible sanctions on Russian exports.

Putin’s last publicly announced conversation with the Saudi Crown Prince was on March 3, according to the Kremlin.

Bin Salman on Friday spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping and also discussed Ukraine, according to Chinese state television, which said Beijing is seeking “high-level” cooperation with Saudi Arabia in energy, trade and high technology.
