OPEC, or the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, is an intergovernmental agency that coordinates policies to ensure the fair and regular supply of petroleum to other countries in the world. Countries outside of OPEC may seek to maneuver politically to gain favor with OPEC.

Is OPEC very influential in the world?

Yes, OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) wields significant influence in the global oil market due to its ability to set production levels and influence oil prices. As a coalition of major oil-producing nations, OPEC can stabilize or destabilize markets by coordinating output among its members. Its decisions can impact economies worldwide, particularly those heavily reliant on oil imports or exports. However, the rise of alternative energy sources and non-OPEC oil production has somewhat diminished its influence in recent years.

Is OPEC 's cartel legal?

It doesn't matter, because the C stands for "countries". Each of the members of OPEC is a sovereign state and therefore enjoys sovereign immunity. If the rest of the world got ticked off enough about it there could be trade sanctions or even war against the members of OPEC, but short of that there's not much that could be done regarding enforcement. Also, the members of OPEC don't like each other that well and have a long history of not cooperating with production quotas, and even if they did OPEC accounts for less than half of world oil production so while they definitely have influence over the market they certainly don't control it.
