Saudi Arabia`s diplomatic dispute with Canada will not affect state oil firm Aramco`s clients in Canada, the country`s energy minister said.
Saudi oil supplies are not subject to political considerations, Khalid al-Falih said in remarks quoted by Saudi Arabia`s state press agency early on Thursday.
Riyadh on Sunday froze new trade with Canada and expelled the Canadian ambassador. It also ended state-backed educational and medical programs in a dispute that was sparked by Canada demanding the release of jailed rights activists.
