“The United Arab Emirates (UAE) withdrew from the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC) from May 1”
DISPUTED
The claim states the UAE withdrew from OAPEC. However, the provided evidence from NPR and the Emirates News Agency explicitly states the UAE is leaving OPEC and OPEC+, not OAPEC. While OAPEC is mentioned in Wikipedia, there is no evidence that the UAE is leaving OAPEC; the evidence specifically targets OPEC/OPEC+.
