Iran's representative to OPEC says US President Donald Trump should stop tweeting about wanting lower oil prices, saying that doing so has the opposite effect.

Hossein Kazempour Ardebili was quoted by the oil ministry's website today as telling Trump to "please stop," adding that "with your frequent and indecent tweets oil prices have gone up 10 dollars."
Yesterday he tweeted that OPEC is "doing little to help," adding that, "if anything, they are driving prices higher."
