"An increase of 1.2 million barrels of crude oil production per day?"
"What exactly is that bastard Saad trying to do?"
Sam was burning with rage; he felt he could barely contain his bloodlust.
Upon hearing this, Azawi quickly offered words of comfort.
"Sam, don't get angry."
How can I not get angry?
“Look at this yourself, that bastard Saad. He said he’s increasing oil production by 1.2 million barrels per day. 1.2 million barrels of oil, don’t you understand?”
Sam practically roared those words.
Sam was so angry not only because the Kingdom of Kote had increased its oil production.
More importantly, there's the figure of 1.2 million barrels of crude oil per day.
Isn't this obviously an insult to Sam?
At that time, Iraq's daily crude oil production was approximately 1.2 million barrels.
Rather than saying Sam gave up domestic crude oil exports, it would be more accurate to say he did so to increase international crude oil prices.
The annual OPEC meeting is still not scheduled.
Sam had previously negotiated with OPEC members through secret channels regarding crude oil production cuts, but these negotiations were rejected by other countries for various reasons.
He only came up with this idea as a last resort.
As it turns out, Sam's tactic was very clever.
If none of the three families were involved.
Sam will also make a fortune in the upcoming market.
Not only could it resolve domestic conflicts, but it could also use the dollars earned to pay off the debts left over from the previous war.
More importantly, Sam also trained an elite force.
It can be said that this is killing three birds with one stone.
However.
Ideals are lofty, but reality is harsh.
Sam's vision was limited to the impact on neighboring countries, and he misjudged the international situation.
The world is not just about the Gulf region.
In addition, there were two other superpowers in the midst of the Cold War.
They are the true rulers of this world.
That's why.
Sam unwittingly sabotaged the Rockefeller family's plans.
The entire family poured their resources into this project, even selling off the family's symbol, Rockefeller Center.
This also shows how much Rockefeller sacrificed for this plan.
result.
You, Sam, have it all. You can cut production whenever you want and raise oil prices whenever you want.
Do you really think you can dictate the price of crude oil?
This idea is not unique to the Rockefeller family; other major oil-producing countries also share similar thoughts.
If Sam knew that these people thought this way, he would definitely laugh.
They are so young.
Or rather, they underestimated Sam, believing he wouldn't do anything too outrageous.
It is said that three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang.
It has to be said that sometimes fate plays a cruel joke.
The DuPont family's unexpected involvement completely blocked Sam's escape route.
Even more deadly is that the Morgan family also possesses a powerful weapon that can influence the world order.
It was precisely because of this flawed judgment that things reached a point of no return.
If it were only the Rockefeller family, perhaps the ending we see would be different.
Ultimately, the Rockefeller family was just a business family; they couldn't compare to the Morgan family in terms of shrewdness, nor to the DuPont family in terms of ruthlessness.
However, the Rockefeller family was not entirely without merit.
Just like two gears need lubricating oil.
It was precisely because the Rockefeller family acted as a lubricant that the three families were united against a common enemy and their interests were closely intertwined.
“Azawi, go and inform the troops that I want Saad to disappear from this world.”
"Sam, calm down, listen to me."
"Sending troops at this time would be counterproductive; making money should be our priority."
Azawi was not wrong.
The cause, the process, and the result all revolve around crude oil prices.
At its core, it all comes down to money.
The attack on the Kingdom of Korte was not a spur-of-the-moment decision by Sam.
If one can become the head of state, surely one has this much magnanimity?
Nothing more!
These days, according to intelligence reports, the people of Kurt and the United States are getting closer and seem to have reached some shady agreement.
Furthermore, Sam also sensed from the subtle clues that the United States was intentionally suppressing the United Kingdom of Iraq.
For example, Sam had previously received several calls from creditors.
Upon further reflection, it became clear that without the lobbyists, these creditors would never have dared to pressure Sam.
And the countries that dare to do this are easy to guess.
This is why Sam initially sent his eldest son, Uday, to the powerful northern nation to seek help.
The only country that can rival the United States is Russia.
Iraq has always been part of the Russian camp, and there is no conflict of interest between the two countries.
In some respects, the rise of Iraq is only beneficial to Russia, and not detrimental.
This explains why Sam is not afraid of America.
in addition.
He also wanted to use this method to send a strong warning to those neighboring countries that were eager to cause trouble.
If we can seize this opportunity to unify the Middle East, we can even curb the West's development in the oil sector.
For this reason, do you think the Russians will stand behind Iraq?
“Sam, give me a week. I’ll go and persuade the Emir of the Kingdom of Kurt to abandon the plan to increase oil production.”
"We have just ended the eight-year Iran-Iraq War. If we start another war at this time, I am afraid that the army will be resistant and it will have a great impact on our future plans."
