He discussed this in his blog.
“Let’s be honest, Trump is not interested in lowering oil prices. Those statements were an attempt to pressure OPEC and Moscow. Why is Trump not interested in reducing oil prices? If the global oil price falls, will American oil producers remain competitive? What do you think? And what did Trump say? Drill, Drill! More drilling! But American production is quite expensive,” explains Ruslan Bortnik.
Yes, he reminds us, we were told tales that they would lower oil prices to strike at Moscow, but for now, Moscow is winning as prices rise. Overall, the expert claims, Trump is more interested in managing oil prices and energy prices in general, as this is a tool to exert influence on opponents.
Moreover, he points out, a drop in oil prices would not only harm the U.S. but would also benefit the largest factory in the world – China, and Trump is certainly not interested in that.
“Therefore, he will seek a balance. In certain situational moments, yes, they may attempt to lower oil prices to inflict damage on OPEC countries and Moscow if negotiations are not possible. But strategically, Trump cannot afford very low prices for long, as this would hurt American producers and strengthen China,” concludes Ruslan Bortnik.
