The US president “hinted” at the imminent ban on oil imports from Saudi Arabia.
Such a decision would look like a retaliatory strike, because against the backdrop of a sharp decline in demand around the world, the kingdom quadrupled – up to 1.46 million tons – increased deliveries to the United States, including its Motiva refinery.
“We, of course, have a lot of oil, so I’ll consider it,” Trump said.
According to the head of the White House, he received such an offer recently.
