the good relations that link GCC countries and the United States of America, which is an historic relationship as affirmed by GCC countries and all American administrations, the current US administration could not understand this relation correctly.
The misunderstanding usually comes from mistaken consultations or previous political stands that impose itself on the American decision maker. Of course, leaders of Gulf countries cannot forget that the US is the superpower in the world and both sides supported each other during hard times. Despite the rapid changes that we see around us, our leaders are still standing in support of the US in the world, even as the GCC countries are an emerging power that is difficult to ignore or deal with.
The liberal intellect from which the US gets its policy is the same that rejects mixing a country's economic interests and political action. The OPEC+ decision was purely an economic decision, imposed by economic factors the world is going through, most importantly the global recession, the Russian-Ukrainian dispute and what followed in the form of economic threats, as well as what China has done by closing many production sources, in addition to other factors. So, OPEC+ countries were compelled to take a decision to maintain stability of the world market.
The most notable evidence is that the decision of OPEC+ is purely an economic decision in order to maintain stability of the world market. The price of oil was not affected by that decision; rather the price dropped by two dollars three days ago. I hope the Biden administration does not rush into untying the strong relations between our countries and the US, as the rapid changes in the world call upon us to be united and understand each other for the sake of our peoples' interests and friendship.
