that is common sense,their is what will call balance of trades and balance of payment.Now Russia under section we sell far less for Saudi Arabia which will bring more profit to Saudi than produce from their side.
LabStores:
I don't really understand all these import anymore.

Russia with abundant oil and gas that they use to feed many European countries will be buying oil from Iran...

Saudi Arabia with enormous that they export to different countries of the world will also be buying oil from Russia...

What are you people not telling us?

What Saudi Arabia is doing called Comparative advantage,they bought from Russia oil at a very cheap rate and probably resell to others just like India doing by selling to Europe

Saudi is an oil giant so why import from Russia. Something fishy cooking there.
..
Saudi Arabia imports discounted Russian fuel oil primarily to fuel its domestic power plants during high-demand summer months, allowing the kingdom to export more of its own premium crude oil at higher international prices. This strategic move maximizes profit, maintains internal energy needs, and leverages cheap, sanctioned fuel while preserving local resources.

Europe imposed sanctions on Russia which now sells its oil much cheaper, Saudi Arabia buys cheap Russian oil, ships it to Saudi Arabia, mixes it with Saudi oil and it becomes Saudi crude oil, then sells to Europe at higher price.

Do you get the logic, why drain your crude oil with all the wahala when you can easily buy from another person at cheap prices and make profit by selling to his perceived enemies that refused to buy from him

It doesn't make economic sense for a country to be a producer and still be an import consumer of the same product it produces.
Say hello to Nigeria.

I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories. We all know that Europe imposed sanctions are reason why Russian oil is sold at a discount. As for the claim regarding Saudi's supposed mixing of Russian oil into its stock, that I do not have evidence for and would rather not bother with until I ocme upon evidence for it. 🥱

Lies. Before sanctions Russian oil have ALWAYS been sold at a discount. Even before the war.

Infact Europe and Germany built their entire industries on cheap Russian gas.

It has been so for over 50 years now. Russian gas always sold cheaper. There was never a time Russia sold oil for more.

. Russian oil is cheap primarily due to steep discounts, sometimes over $30 a barrel below global benchmarks, offered to entice buyers after Western sanctions over the Ukraine invasion restricted its market. India, China, and Turkey now dominate purchases, leveraging their position to demand lower prices, while high transport costs and the need to use a "shadow fleet" for shipping further reduce the net

That's what Russian oil have always been known for. Discounts.

How do you think Europe grew their industries?

The reference is clearly from after the war and the current increase in purchase of Russian oil by the Saudis. Please try to keep up. 🥱🥱🥱
