Biden thinks US should rethink its relations with Saudi Arabia
In his words, Riyadh was going to face some consequences for what they’ve done together with Russia
NEW YORK, October 12. /TASS/. US President Joe Biden believes that the time has come to "rethink" relations between Washington and Riyadh following the OPEC+ decision to cut oil output despite US efforts to prevent this.
In his words, Riyadh was going to face "some consequences for what they’ve done [together] with Russia."
He did not go into details regarding Washington’s possible actions, but assured that the US response would certainly follow.
Earlier, the White House said the OPEC+ decision to cut oil production shows that Saudi Arabia was coordinating its energy policy with Russia.
Countries participating in the OPEC+ agreement extended the deal until the end of 2023 on October 5, and agreed to reduce oil production by 2 mln barrels per day from November.
