The U.S. president set out on a trip to the Middle East for the first time after his inauguration.
Saudi Arabia stands in the spotlight in Biden’s trip to the Middle East.
He is known to have increased pressure on Saudi Arabia even before his presidency. He said that he would make Saudi Arabia a “pariah state”, claiming that Saudi Arabian government had a hand in the murder of a Saudi Arabian journalist. After taking office, he imposed sanctions on 76 individuals under the pretext that they were involved in the above-mentioned case.
The international society is clicking its tut-tut at his capricious taste of deciding to visit this country after making a U-turn on his attitude.
The U.S. is now faced with a huge politico-economic crisis caused by record-breaking inflation rate unprecedented in the last 40 years and skyrocketing prices, shortage of goods and paralyzed supply network as well as relentless world-startling gun-related crimes.
Moreover, the US-led anti-Russia sanctions induced a sharp rise in crude oil prices on international scale, throwing the energy situation at home into chaos. This cannot but be a big problem for the current U.S. administration with the midterm election just around the corner.
This drove the U.S. president to set out on his humiliating trip to the Middle East in order to create favorable environment for the coming midterm election by easing the energy crisis and quelling the grievance at home.
It is no accidental that the international media are deriding the U.S. president as follows: As the Biden administration faces the crisis of losing the midterm election in the coming November due to the sharp rise in prices of crude oil and commodities caused by the U.S.-led anti-Russia sanctions, he came to call upon Saudi Arabia for help, without caring about decency; Biden has decided to barter “human rights” for crude oil.
There are two interesting facts that are proven once again by Biden’s trip to the Middle East.
One is that sanctions-almighty doctrine of the U.S. doesn’t work anymore. Another is that the U.S. “human rights standard” is ever-changing according to its interests like a chameleon which changes its color to match the environment.
