Iran intends to make Trump an offer he can’t refuse by holding the oil supply hostage to his sanctions US president Donald Trump hoped to create economic pressure on the citizens of Venezuela and Iran by passing sanctions that would damage their oil market, among others. Now that Trump’s sanctions have increased the price of oil, some OPEC member nations want to increase production in order to compensate for the loss of supply in the market from Iran and Venezuela to get a handle on the price of oil, which is on the rise. However, in order to push through an agreement to increase production, OPEC needs unanimous agreement amongst its members. However, the oil producing nations, and OPEC members of Venezuela and Iran, who are subjects of Trump’s economic sanctions, together with Iraq, are refusing to abide by any agreement to increase oil production for this purpose. Tasnim News Agency reports: TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s oil minister said problems in the oil market were political and not the result of a supply and demand imbalance. “The current problem in the oil market is the result of political tension caused by the American president, not supply and demand imbalance,” Bijan Zangeneh said on Tuesday before his departure to the OPEC summit, Shana news agency reported. Recently, Hossein Kazempour Ardebili, Iran’s OPEC governor, said Venezuela and Iraq will join Iran in blocking a proposal to increase oil production that’s backed by Saudi Arabia and Russia when OPEC and its allies meet in Vienna this week. “Three OPEC founders are going to stop it,” Kazempour Ardebili said in comments to Bloomberg on Sunday. “If the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Russia want to increase production, this requires unanimity. If the two want to act alone, that’s a breach of the cooperation agreement.” OPEC and its allies could consider a production increase of as much as 1.5 million barrels a day, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said on Thursday. That would be enough to offset the supply losses from Venezuela and Iran foreseen by the International Energy Agency. Saudi Arabia has been discussing different scenarios that would raise production by between 500,000 and 1 million barrels a day, according to people familiar with the matter. The alliance is also facing pressure from outside. US President Donald Trump has continued to criticize the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries on his Twitter account. Worried about the impact of gasoline prices on mid-term elections, the Trump administration is lobbying hard for a surge in production. “We call upon our brothers in OPEC and Russia that we do not need to appease Trump, who sanctions two OPEC founders and also Russia,” Kazempour Ardebili said. “We are sovereign nations driven by our own responsibilities and values. The whole world has to stand against these arrogant attitudes — and will.” Therefore, Iran, Iraq, and Venezuela are, in effect, pushing the effects of Trump’s sanctions back onto America, which will continue to realize the costs of Trump’s sanctions through increased oil prices. Trump wanted to make a deal that Iran and Venezuela couldn’t refuse, but now that it is Iran and Venezuela’s turn, they intend to make Trump such a deal, by holding the oil supply hostage to Trump’s economic sanctions. Apparently, the effects of Trump’s sanctions will be visited upon Americans, as well, and as long as Trump intends to stand by this behaviour, he can expect oil prices to reflect it.

OPEC oil sanctions on the USA. Blowback for Trump's ignorant, arrogant, corrupt, stupidity. The Donald is making America a sh*thole, like NYC. Special adviser to Javanka I think Donald is doing the best he can at the moment. He cannot, however, control the interest on the massive debt Congress has subjected the entire nation to, since debt repudiation is a matter of getting the banksters to dance at the end of a rope as all such criminal cabalists are meant to do. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one."

He cannot, however, control the interest on the massive debt Congress has subjected the entire nation to You're right, this is the best that a thieving idiot who's surrounded himself with the the very worst that this country has to offer, can do. He signed onto the HUGE congressional budget increase, jacking the debt up even further. The Donald himself has said that he's "The King of Debt". He signed onto the HUGE congressional budget increase, jacking the debt up even further. Do you have a source? One thing you must realize is the U.S. has been on a perpetual war footing for many years. Donald must give Congress what they ask for as far as military expenditures goes.

He is still 100 times better than Hillary. I do oppose his Zionism. But JFK was killed and America did nothing to jail the guilty parties so don't expect too much from our Presidents.

LBJ formed the Warren Commission. Allen Dulles sat on that Commission. He hated Kennedy since he ruined his career at the CIA. More reason to whitewash his killing. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
Do you have a source? Yeah, The Donnell. He tells me all of his deepest darkest secrets ;) I read yesterday that The Kingdom agreed to increase production 1M/bbl/day.

Israel killed JFK. LBJ and Dulles, the dumber of the 2 Dulles boys, did not have the pull to plot a Presidential assassination from ground zero. They likely were told before the fact. JFK opposed Israel's nuclear weapons program.

Keep your ear to the ground and maybe you can give us further insights. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
better than Hillary I was so hoping for a President that's better than Charles Manson too. Alas, that's not to be for now. But both of them had to be in on the plot, as well as the coverup. Add to that the Joints Chief of Staff, Hoover, and the entire Warren Commission. We are all paying higher gas prices because of Israel. Sanctions on Russia and Iran are the result of Jew politics. As an American I have no beef with either.
