India's power minister reportedly said the current global energy crisis is likely to last for some time due to the "cartelisation" of the fossil fuel industry and not just because of the Ukraine conflict.

"I believe this crisis has been brewing for some time." He blamed the crisis on the "trend towards cartelisation, the trend towards reaping profits, as vast profits as possible as quickly as possible."
