US will take action against Saudi Arabia, says Biden after OPEC+ cuts oil production
Washington, Oct 13 (PTI) US President Joe Biden on Wednesday said his administration will take action against Saudi Arabia after the Riyadh-led OPEC+ alliance announced plans to cut oil production, a move that America said would support oil exporters such as Russia.
“We’re going to react to Saudi Arabia, and they’re (Congress) doing consultation when they come back. And we will take action,” Biden told reporters at the White House.
He was responding to a question from lawmakers, including Indian-American Congressman Ro Khanna, calling for a stopping of US arm sales to Saudi Arabia in the wake of the Kingdom’s decision to reduce oil production.
