Economic warfare at its finest, this is the exact same play we did to them in the 80's, we're agreeing with the Saudis to tank the price of oil, which marginally hurts both of us in the short term, for the long term goal of crippling Russia and hindering its ability to project power beyond its borders. And the Saudis love that play, because it not only hurts the Russians, who they despise, but also the Iranians and their proxies throughout the Middle East.
