Gas prices were already high before this conflict exploded with Russia and for similar reasons. Prince Mohammed bin Salman has been trying to screw Joe Biden for a while now for calling him a murderer and promising to make Saudi Arabia a “pariah state” for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. We now essentially have an insufferable Yankee schoolmarm in charge of American foreign policy.
WSJ:
“The White House unsuccessfully tried to arrange calls between President Biden and the de facto leaders of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates as the U.S. was working to build international support for Ukraine and contain a surge in oil prices, said Middle East and U.S. officials.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and the U.A.E.’s Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al Nahyan both declined U.S. requests to speak to Mr. Biden in recent weeks, the officials said, as Saudi and Emirati officials have become more vocal in recent weeks in their criticism of American policy in the Gulf.
“There was some expectation of a phone call, but it didn’t happen,” said a U.S. official of the planned discussion between the Saudi Prince Mohammed and Mr. Biden. “It was part of turning on the spigot [of Saudi oil].” …”
The United States is a dangerous place to do business.
Just a few days ago, Joe Biden made good on his promise to make Russia a “pariah state,” which is the reason why he is now trying to repair relations with Saudi Arabia, Iran, Venezuela and Libya. We can’t afford to simultaneously cancel Russia and punish Saudi Arabia and all these other countries.
Mohammed bin Salman now says that he doesn’t care what Joe Biden thinks of him. After watching our radical moves to seize Russian assets and destroy Russia’s economy on a whim to appease the Twitter mob, he is probably eyeing his own exit from the petroshekel.
Shlomo didn’t go to all that trouble to steal an election without an agenda that could not be accomplished otherwise. Braindead Biden is the perfect tool. Trump would have objected to starting a hot war with Russia.
Why would any of these countries like Iran or Venezuela ever trust the USA? They should take a page from America’s playbook. Get as much money as they can get from America, but don’t allow USA any power or leverage over them (no deals, no diplomats, no advisors) then never deliver on their end.
I think the international community realizes that ZOG USA is probably not going to be around much longer. Better to hitch their stars to China and India. Unlike America those two countries aren’t interested in military conquest.
The Third Temple is getting cucked by the emirs. Haha
No one blame them for sending Biden’s call straight to voicemail.
Why would you not accept Chinese Yuan for petroleum? Everyone buys tons of stuff from them and it is probably as versatile as the dollar.
