A group of Republican congress members has introduced a new bill that would ban the US from buying oil from Iran, which could otherwise resume after a yearslong gap caused by Washington’s unilateral withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2018.

“The Biden administration is now considering buying oil from Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terror. There is absolutely no reason to import terrorist’s oil when we can drill better, cheaper, and cleaner right here at home,” Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN), chairman of the Republican Study Committee, said on Tuesday.

Banks said that US President Joe Biden “crushed the American energy industry on day one of his presidency,” forcing the US to become “dependent on our foreign adversaries for oil.” He was likely referring to Biden’s executive order on his first day in office that banned oil drilling on federal lands and protected areas, as had been controversially allowed by the prior Trump administration. Banks said this caused a spike in oil prices, which he credited for enabling Russian President Vladimir Putin to launch a special military operation in Ukraine.

On Tuesday, Biden also announced he was banning the importing of Russian petroleum products as part of the latest round of sanctions in retaliation for the Ukraine operation, which aims to destroy the neo-Nazi forces in Ukraine the US has enabled for years.

However, those sanctions could impede Biden’s effort to revive the JCPOA, which after nearly a year of talks in Vienna, Austria, seems to be on the cusp of success. The 2015 deal, signed with seven powers, including the US and Russia, placed strict limitations on the quality and quantity of uranium Iran could refine in exchange for the removal of international sanctions against Iran’s economy. However, the US pulled out in 2018 and reimposed the sanctions, claiming without evidence that Iran was secretly pursuing a nuclear bomb.

Speaking to Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian on Monday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said it was essential that the new JCPOA “provide for all participants to have equal rights in relation to the unhindered development of cooperation in all areas without any discrimination.” The statement has been widely interpreted as meaning that Iran should be exempt from the US sanctions against Moscow, a key economic partner of Iran and a major player in Iran’s civil nuclear program.

The sanctions are threatening to hurt the US economy, too: the price of crude oil in international markets has spiked sharply over the past two weeks, and domestic gasoline prices have hit their highest point in 15 years. With the US already facing its worst inflation in 40 years thanks to higher shipping costs created by the COVID-19 pandemic, investors are expecting the situation to become even worse.

Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist for the Leuthold Group, told CNBC on Monday that “‘stagflation’ is rapidly becoming the central focus in portfolio strategies,” referring to the 1970s phenomenon caused by Middle Eastern oil exporters imposing an embargo on Western nations who supported Israel in the 1973 war.

“Preparing for slower growth and more persistent inflation is driving investor fears and actions," the analyst added.
At home, Biden is facing increasing criticism of high gas prices and his administration’s stance against the expansion of fossil fuel extraction, which is part of a larger effort to curb the worst effects of human-induced climate change. In the Tuesday address where he announced a ban on Russian oil imports, Biden called the cost increases “Putin’s price hike.”
"It's simply not true that my administration or policies are holding back domestic energy production," Biden said. "That's simply not true. Even amid the pandemic, companies in the United States pumped more oil during my first year in office than they did during my predecessor's first year. We're approaching record levels of oil and gas production in the United States."

I do not know who they will buy oil from... Because they label anyone not White as terrorist (especially all Muslims even the coward Neoliberal Muslims).... But most of the oil is under Muslim feet....

venezuela and iran are not stupid
saudi UAE ghosting biden
russia

US will force the world to abide by sanctions against all of them? doesnt seem like something the rest of the world can agree to
 
.
Imagine a country even willing to contemplate cooperation when they were subject of regime change? When their leaders are, were or will be on hit list... when their sitting Generals are assassinated, with no remorse, overtly and without even a pretense of surreptitiousness.
How then?

That being said imagine the poorer countries of the world that have thus far abstained from doing business with these rogue or sanctioned regimes(remember both remain on the chopping block for regime change)? Countries like Pakistan, with high populations and poorer demographics, with abundance of natural resources in the neighborhood, excusing themselves from obtaining a cheaper, direct and perhaps even on barter, trade/deals that could have immensely benefited respective masses?

Buy how could they when the strings are pulled from certain capitals and loyal colored men ever so eager to show gratitude and loyalty of mere concession/permission of presence/appearance, bend over backwards to acquiesce and concur...
String thus of mind, institutions and finally of violence... that coerce time and again a suitable resolution in favor of powers that be...

The United States is imposing sanctions on Europe, cracking down on the euro and bringing money back to the United States, because the United States is about to raise interest rates.

The birthplace for democracy has nothing democratic about it anymore. Its worse than any form of dictatorship. USA is paving way for its own death. Consumed by its arrogance and fearful for loosing its illegitimate economic strength, it is trying to further tighten the grip against other large countries. The aim is to have total dominance and control over rest of the world. A financial, economic, trade system where USA is in control of everything. US Dollar remains the world's trading currency. Everyone else keeps fighting for US dollars whereas US just simply keeps printing them. Using that printed dollar they can keep funding their unlimited wars, military industrial complex and R&D. What a sweet plan. Every other country would be a client state of USA. Basically, you totally bow down to our supremacy and we let you live. We let you have some of our weapons as well. Otherwise you are simply a terrorist, no matter if you are a Christian Russia or an Atheist China or an Islamic Middle Eastern, you will be vilified, subjugated and oppressed. World should be able to see, western democracy is a self serving farce & deception. There is no place for difference of opinion, independent thought or free will! Either you are with them or against them.

US's harsh policies would only push the world closer towards WW3. WW3 would be eminent once an alternative financial system is introduced i.e. not linked to the US Dollar. US pushing around of Russia & China would only result in a complete switch over to be attained sooner. And hence WW3 to be initiated quicker. USA is the real dictator which has hijacked whole of the earth's economy based on its military might. It is the one wagging wars on to others every day. It is the one banning media, controlling Facebook & twitter. Denying its people of any other or independent view. Complete and total control of public opinion. China & Russia are superior nations. They have build their economies and might despite the USA's tyranny. Organically, USA won't be the mighty country that it claims to be.

USA always worked against humanity. Their wars claimed to do the right thing but instead just resulted in merciless murder of millions. Genocides in cover of "liberation". None of the "liberating" countries are doing well, they are completely destroyed. World hunger, poverty, homelessness, forget about addressing world the real world problems. US is interested in getting rockets to the Mars because NASA's technology eventually gets handed down to US military as well. I think they have played their games too long, this system will collapse one day.

Yesterday's enemy is tomorrow's friend.

And yesterday's friend is tomorrow's enemy.

Nothing personal about this, simply just a geopolitical game or business of selfishness and self-glory.

You are nothing Russian and Iranian.

Simply nothing!
