White House Accuses OPEC+ of Siding with Russia After Biden Failure to Get Saudis to Pump More Oil
Breitbart ^ | 5 Oct 2022 | CHARLIE SPIERING

Posted on 10/05/2022 7:28:15 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

The White House on Wednesday accused the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC+) of siding with Russia by deciding to cut oil production.

“Look, it’s clear that OPEC+ is aligning with Russia with today’s announcement,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said to reporters aboard Air Force One.

President Joe Biden also expressed his concern about the decision, calling it “unnecessary” as he left the White House to travel to Florida to witness the storm damage caused by Hurricane Ian.

The White House was sharply critical of the OPEC+ decision to cut production by two million barrels a day, calling it “short-sighted” and a “mistake.”

The decision proved that Biden’s attempt to smooth his relationship with Saudi Arabia and other allies in the Middle East to encourage more oil production failed.

The president traveled to Saudi Arabia in July and even fist-bumped Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) despite denouncing the country as a “pariah.”

Saudis have a very calculated and subtle way of communicating. They have just told us they have had enough of the nonsense from the Biden administration.

The House of Saud didn't get the message..."No one ***** with a Biden".

Well, gee

I guess we will just have to pump the oil our selves.

I know that really just $ucks but there you go the evil Putin is forcing us to use our own resources and as a consequence our government will collect taxes and our people will be employed.

I know we would rather send our money to the Saudi government so that they can fund terrorism but we will just have to live with it.
