Speaking in the religious apartheid city of Riyadh, President Bush called on our friends the Saudis and OPEC to increase oil production in order to bring prices down. The Saudis smiled for the cameras, and said, “No.”
Saudi Arabia will raise oil production only when the market justifies it, the kingdom’s oil minister said Tuesday, in response to President Bush’s request that OPEC nations increase output to reduce world oil prices.
