The UAE Withdrawing From OPEC Is Part Of Trump's Strategy...

Big things are happening quickly as President Trump continues to disrupt historic global structures of control and influence.

This is where things get really interesting…. Because the UAE can effectively eliminate the Hormuz chokepoint, and Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent previously outlined something very important to the UAE:
quote:
The UAE can bypass the Hormuz chokepoint, and Saudi Arabia can pump oil to the Red Sea via their east/west pipeline.
If Trump keeps the blockade against Iranian oil shipments in place, the UAE and Saudi Arabia can fill the global oil void; however, they need to get outside the OPEC restrictions to do it. Thus, the UAE exiting OPEC makes strategic sense both now and in the geopolitical longer term.
However, in the short run the UAE needs financial stability as the switch is done. Enter Scott Bessent with the currency swap lines for the UAE.
Brilliant planning.
Iran just lost all their leverage.

Supercomputer warfare, simulations after simulations. Same thing happened to the Russians in Ukraine.
Prompt...give me a simulation where we destroy the IRGC and keep oil prices low.

Lol... obviously... but let's see how this figures into things in another month!
The typical 24 hr "breaking news" simpletons will be clamoring about this!
Meanwhile, you can suck my a-hole. Get back with me later once your finished.

Yes, breaking up the oil cartel is good.
Its going to be funny though watching the free trade tards be mad about this.
