Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) – Activists on social media circulated previous statements made by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, in which he addressed the importance of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to America, which sparked an interaction.
Prince Muhammad bin Salman said in this statement taken from a previous interview he gave to Saudi journalist Abdullah Al-Mudaifer on the Saudi channel: “You can imagine if the 10 million barrels of cheap oil at a production cost of 3-6 dollars went to Britain, America would not be in its current state today. “.
And the announcer commented on Mohammed bin Salman’s statement, saying: “You mean, Saudi Arabia contributed to America’s strength?” To the Saudi Crown Prince: “There is no doubt…”
US President Joe Biden, in an interview with CNN, promised Saudi Arabia “consequences for what it did with Russia,” referring to the OPEC Plus group’s decision last week to reduce oil production by two million barrels per day.
The Saudi Energy Minister, Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, denied the authenticity of reports regarding coordination between Saudi Arabia and Russia, who are leading the OPEC Plus group, to raise oil prices. At a time, there were reports of American pressure to discourage the Kingdom from taking a decision to reduce oil production.
