US warns of consequences to Saudi Arabia over OPEC's oil production cut

The US president Joe Biden has recently made it clear that America is not happy with the way Saudi Arabia has been acting lately in relation to the OPEC's decision to cut back on oil production. 

OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) led by Saudi Arabia has announced to cut the oil productions despite Washington objecting to this move.

Spokesperson of National Security Council, John Kirby, said in a statement, "The president believes that we should review the bilateral relationship with Saudi Arabia and to take a look to see if that relationship is where it needs to be, and that it is serving our national security interests."

Saudi accuses US for manipulating oil market

The US democrats insist that the US must end all arms sale as well as freeze all other aspects of cooperation with Saudi Arabia. However, a strong conflict is brewing up back home as the republicans are of the opinion that the president should focus on oil and gas production in the US itself. 

Republicans, who feel that the president has been insulted, are not pleased with the idea of the America's energy dependence on OPEC countries who are not willing to pay heed to the US energy requirements.
