Question

Why was OPEC created?

A to regulate the supply and price of oil
B to help the Palestinians in their problems with Israel
C to design new machinery to get oil out of the ground
D to keep countries that are not members from producing any oil

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

That was the original intention of OPEC when it was founded in 1960.

However it has used oil as a political leverage, for example after the Yom Kippur war in 1973, to get greater Western support for the Palestinians.
