  According to the Associated Press, "I won't say what I'm thinking about, what I'm thinking. But there will be consequences." Biden said in an interview with CNN on the evening of the 11th, "When the House of Representatives and When the Senate returns (after the midterm elections)...there will be some consequences for what they do."

  U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Menendez, a Democrat, urged on the 10th to freeze all cooperation with Saudi Arabia, including arms sales.

Other Democratic lawmakers have proposed an immediate one-year moratorium on U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia.

It also includes the cessation of sales of spare and repair parts for weapons, support services and logistical support.

  The Chinese website of the Financial Times also pointed out that Biden has been under increasing pressure from congressional Democrats in recent days to take a tougher stance on Saudi Arabia.

  Previously, many in the US Congress believed that the Saudi move betrayed the long-standing strategic and economic relationship between the two countries.

Some have called for a possible halt to most arms sales to Riyadh, while others advocated legislation against oil cartels.

  It was previously reported that the "OPEC+" ministerial meeting held on October 5, local time, decided to reduce the total oil production by an average of 2 million barrels per day.

This is the largest production cut by OPEC+ since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic in 2020.

After the decision was announced, the White House expressed regret.

According to US media, the decision will have a major impact on the upcoming midterm elections.
