Ahmadinejad New OPEC Chief?

In a move that will not reduce Middle East tensions, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad may assume temporary powers as the head of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.

"For now, I myself am the caretaker of the oil ministry," Ahmadinejad said in a televised speech late Sunday, without elaborating.
On Saturday, Ahmadinejad dismissed oil minister Masoud Mirkazemi, alongside two other ministers, whose portfolios are expected to be merged with other departments as part of a cabinet streamlining.

Huh.
