OPEC’s historical grip on the global oil market is weakening as some members prioritize immediate sales over production limits. With the UAE already out and Venezuela mulling its options, Saudi Arabia’s ability to sway energy markets is becoming precarious. The UAE exited amid the US-Israel war with Iran to leverage its expanded production capacity, while founding member Venezuela’s potential departure underlines the sweeping realignment in Caracas since the US attacked and deposed President Nicolás Maduro.
