Russia Threatens To Send Oil Prices To $300 Per Barrel Or Higher If West Bans Oil Imports

Biden Looks Around the World for Oil While Ignoring One Major Country’s Supply.

Russia is threatening to send the price of oil through the roof if the West cuts off Russian oil imports in response to the invasion of Ukraine.

“It is absolutely clear that a rejection of Russian oil would lead to catastrophic consequences for the global market,” Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said. “The surge in prices would be unpredictable. It would be $300 per barrel if not more.”

“So far, we are not taking such a decision,” Novak said. “But European politicians with their statements and accusations against Russia push us towards that.”

So plan is to cozy up to Venezuela and Saudi Arabia for our energy needs but NOT produce it here at home because of “climate change?” Make it make sense!!!!!

You know your brain is broken when you think foreign oil is better for the environment than American oil.

Joe Biden is in Texas today but won’t meet with energy producers to find out what’s needed to increase production, reduce prices, and reduce dependence on foreign oil.

Instead, this White House would rather meet with Venezuela and Iran.

So Biden is banning Russian oil imports (which he should have done since the beginning if he wanted the sanctions to be serious) but is looking to substitute for those imports oil from…Venezuela, a Russian ally and authoritarian socialist state. Makes sense!
