  1. It’s a good idea, it would really hurt Russia. But it would also hurt the OPEC countries so I have a hard time seeing how they would agree to this.

  2. Soon, to find out that no one in opec gives a shit about his opinion.

  3. Won’t happen, because profits always triumph over politics.

  4. I can’t believe I am starting to like orange man, wtf.

  5. Don’t listen to that brain dead idiot. He does not have a clue what he’s talking about! Seriously!

  6. That would be great, sadly, we don’t live in never never land so it will stay only in the wishes.

  8. The problem is that places like Saudi Arabia and other large oil producing countries tend to be aligned with Russia

  10. Russia have their own oil market price; urals oil. Russia state owned industry undercut other oil markets to make sure that they are the ones selling. The western Oil industry would bankrupt itself before it began to crowd out Russia. It ain’t going to happen. Russia can always sell to China regardless of western market prices.

    We are making assumptions that Russia is an advanced western market economy. It isn’t.

  11. The sad part is that his idiot followers think he is smart when he says that he is. He doesn’t have a clue how economics or geopolitics work.
