Azerbaijan has not so far received an invitation to participate in a meeting between OPEC and non-OPEC countries, which will be held in April in Qatar, Azerbaijan
Earlier, Venezuelan Oil Minister Eulogio Del Pino said that a meeting of the OPEC member states and other oil producing countries on oil output freezing will take place on April 17 in Doha and about 20 countries, including Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Oman, Mexico and Columbia will participate in the meeting.

“If such an invitation comes, we’ll consider it,” said the ministry.
