help allies

Due to the attack carried out by the Yemeni Houthi armed forces using 10 drones that hit the facilities of the Saudi oil company, Aramco, which wiped out 50% of its production, Donald Trump declared on Monday that he would help his allies despite the fact that the United States has energy independence.

The Trump administration blamed Iran for the attack on Saudi Arabia, while the Iranian economy minister declared that they were not responsible for the attacks.

In another tweet on his personal account, Trump assured, “Because we have done so well with energy in recent years (thank you, Mr. President!), We are a net energy exporter and now the number one energy producer in the world. We don't need oil and gas from the Middle East, and in fact we have very few tankers there, but we will help our allies!"
