10:03 pm
rivals. role becoming clear to me how closely interwoven america's interests are with the successes, melinda, we will not walk away and leave a vacuum to be filled by china. russia ran biden faces high inflation back home, driven partly by a spike in energy prices. so he's pushing gulf leaders, including saudi arabia, to ramp up oil production and bring down fuel costs a goal. he's failed to achieve the game. look at, we don't know if you had the magic kingdom or carry out it's rolled with regards to oil and gas production, as it announced, increasing its production capacity to 13000000 barrels a day. to quote, saudi arabia will no longer be able to increase production. beyond that, a month ago, it was returning to the u. s. empty handed is a problem for president grappling with low approval ratings. biden's also being

10:05 pm
president. i won't ask how many less presidents you've seen come and go, but said, does it cause you to reflect on whether anything has changed? yes, that is the $64000000000.00 question. but clearly i since up senator biden, 1st visited the region 50 years ago, back in 1973 until to day. the 3 men, issues on the agenda are the same. unfortunately. and these are israel, oil and the cold war and youth of cold war. but more of the same oil and is red. and hence, that really begs the question, after all the disasters and the wars, and after all the setbacks in the region, after all the suffering, the past 50 years. and really,
10:06 pm
we are back to more of the same with an american president promising to be involved as if he is invited. because in the end of the day, it seems to me, history tells us a whole other lesson teaches or some other lesson the at a public opinion in its absolute maturity remains hostile to american foreign policy in the region and the added leaders. judging from what i heard after widens left the region, including the saudis, that theory mean uncommitted, to that very alliance with the united states, that they are remain open to relationship with russia, with china, with the little by others. so wild widen succeeded in delivering his message. i'm not sure the message was well received in the region. so that's interesting
10:07 pm
moran, because you know this some this fest pump image that's received so much attention really seems to encapsulate how an effortlessly a pledge even one made on the campaign trail can be reversed in a figure. once roundly condemned can can now be endorsed from the white house this perspective, this is a pragmatism to stop russia and china gaining a foothold bill saying that actually it hasn't made much of a difference. that if that was the goal, it, it hasn't been achieved. well clearly for prism by them was not doing too well domestically and that now we're stuck. we're the major crisis in europe. we're the russians envision of ukraine. i think the, the, the, the looking presidential needs to be more or less on foreign policy. and them at least comes next and i think he's trying to say that the confrontation were the
10:08 pm
threat of russia and sort of the you know, the economic threat of china, the strategic threat of china end them at least are also very important for the united states. and he is about to confront and contain the chinese on russian influence in them, at least that's an imperial thinking. the question is, for people of the middle east, for the states of them, at least whether they want to be taking sides yet again, and be on the loser end of these global competitions where they themselves and them at least continue to suffer now from food insecurity economic and security just general insecurity in general as russia and china support huron, the united states support more military alliances in the region, support israel against palestine, and so on, so forth. so really all in all, what we see is probably another cold war building up in the middle east's,
