Senator Dan Sullivan says the kingdom's action to boost production during a pandemic is 'inexcusable'. FMTNews SaudiArabia OilPrices
WASHINGTON: Republican US senators from oil states who recently introduced legislation to remove American troops from Saudi Arabia said on Saturday they had spoken with three officials from the kingdom and urged them to take concrete action to cut crude output.
The call was led by Senators Dan Sullivan and Kevin Cramer, who introduced legislation in March to remove US troops, Patriot missiles and Thaad defence systems from Saudi Arabia unless it cut output. They spoke with Saudi Arabia Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, Deputy Defence Minister Khalid bin Salman, and Saudi Ambassador to the United States Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan.
The United States, the world’s top oil producer, is gradually cutting about 2 million bpd of output as reduced demand and low oil prices force some heavily leveraged producers into bankruptcy.
