The visit came after OPEC countries and their partners (OPEC+) agreed last Thursday to cut voluntary supply totaling 2.2 million barrels a day.
In addition to energy cooperation, President Putin and the Arab leaders also discussed regional and global security issues, including the Hamas-Israel conflict in Gaza.
President Putin will receive Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi in Moscow on Thursday, where the two leaders will discuss economic cooperation and regional and global problems including recent developments in Gaza.
