Khaled Al-Jabri provokes interaction with an article, “Biden must punish Saudi Arabia for its support of Russia” .. and activists respond

Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) – Khaled, son of Saad Al-Jabri, the former Saudi security advisor, sparked a wide interaction among activists on social media following an article he wrote entitled “Biden must punish Saudi Arabia for supporting Russia.”

“Riyadh can make a difference in the oil markets, but it has chosen to stand with its fellow authoritarians rather than the United States,” Al-Jabri said in the article he published on Foreign Policy.

Al-Jabri claimed that while “the United States and its allies stand united once morest the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Saudi Arabia stands by Russia, by not publicly condemning the invasion and affirming its commitment to the OPEC + agreement, and the Saudi government has revealed cracks in its long-standing partnership with the United States.” “.

Al-Jabri continued, claiming that “Saudi Arabia’s unwillingness to increase oil production in response to Biden’s request represents the latest sign of changing loyalties,” as he put it.

It is reported that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, with regard to the crisis in Ukraine, clarified “the Kingdom’s declared position and support for efforts that lead to a political solution that leads to its termination and achieves security and stability, and that the Kingdom is ready to make efforts to mediate between all parties,” during a call. He made a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to the official Saudi Press Agency.

With regard to the impact of the Ukraine crisis on energy markets, Prince Mohammed bin Salman reiterated, “The Kingdom’s keenness to maintain the balance and stability of oil markets, noting the role of the OPEC Plus agreement in this and the importance of maintaining it,” according to the Saudi Agency.

CNN in Arabic contacted the Saudi authorities to obtain a comment on Al-Jabri’s article, without a response at the time of writing this report.
