And yet oil prices in China did not move once during the entirety of the US' bitchfit.
So...
So China compensated from other sources?
Used alternative energy sources?
Used reserves?
It proves only that the US plan failed.
That doesn't negate their motives
The US didn't have a plan, lmao. Israel convinced them that Iran would fall in days or weeks. Israel is a bloodthirsty settler colonial project and Americans are removed. A match made in heaven.
naive and simplistic
Should be tattooed on your forehead.
I find that hard to believe, since the prices rose everywhere in the world, proof?
Literally any news source. Here's one. But every one has wrote about how "China has confounded analysts"
Okay, fine, but this report says nothing about prices for consumers.
