Saudi Arabia, one of the closest countries to America, seems to be taking its path. There could be significant changes in relations between Saudi Arabia and the US. A section of US lawmakers wants to restrict arms supplies to the West Asian country of Saudi Arabia. Let us tell you that Saudi Arabia is almost completely dependent on America for weapons. But the latest controversy over oil has stirred up bitterness in this relationship.
OPEC+ is the largest group of oil-producing countries. Saudi Arabia dominates this group. On October 5, OPEC Plus announced a cut in oil production, which angered the US. Let us tell you that Russia is also a member country in this group. However, since the announcement of the oil cut, the US government was constantly trying to persuade Saudi Arabia to increase oil production. It is reported that Saudi Arabia ignored the words of America.
Saudi-led OPEC Plus has said that the Ukraine war and rising Kovid-19 cases in China are some of the reasons that have caused turmoil in the global market. Therefore, it is necessary to cut oil production to maintain international oil prices. Under this decision, OPEC+ countries will cut oil production by 2 million barrels per day. This will increase the price of oil in the global market.
The thread of relations between America and Saudi Arabia is related to oil. The US protects Saudi Arabia against its enemies in the region, in particular, Iran. Saudi Arabia in turn increases oil production to ensure a reliable supply in its markets. In addition, Saudi Arabia is currently embroiled in a proxy war with Iran in Yemen and is troubled by the resumption of talks on the nuclear deal. Meanwhile, cuts in oil production have angered US lawmakers.
Democrat Senators Bob Menendez, Richard Blumenthal, and Ro Khanna have also spoken of taking action against Saudi. According to the Guardian, US lawmaker Menendez said, "I will not flag any cooperation with Saudi Arabia until the Kingdom reevaluates its position regarding the war in Ukraine. Enough is enough."
Menendez said Prince Mohammed bin Salman was helping to escalate 'Putin's war through the OPEC+ cartel'. Ro Khanna and Blumenthal wrote in Politico magazine, "The Saudi decision was a major blow to the US, but the US also has a way of responding: the US immediately halts the large-scale transfer of American warfare technology into Saudi hands." could." These Democrats called Saudi a "clear ally" of their "worst enemy" and said that these strategic defense systems should not be given to Saudi.
In addition, US Senator Chris Murphy said on Sunday that it is clear that we have not received the cooperation from Saudi Arabia we should have. He said that other members of the Democrats are also in favor that relations with the Gulf countries should be reconsidered. Three other US Democratic leaders said in a joint statement that the US should come into the role of a superpower in relations with the Gulf countries. He cautioned that when he has chosen that option, he should also be prepared for the consequences.
