Saudi Arabia and the United States had deep cooperation before. Saudi Arabia is a very rich country with wealth everywhere. Sovereign Wang Zisheng came with a golden spoon. Once people have so much wealth, they definitely don't want to fight, and peaceful coexistence is definitely the best. So Saudi Arabia has been buying American weapons and equipment, and every soldier is armed to the teeth. However, after the first world war with Yemen, it was found that the weapons were not advanced, and they were beaten by the Yemeni army with few weapons and equipment.
However, what the United States is doing now has affected Saudi Arabia's economy, which is tantamount to cutting off Saudi Arabia's back road, which is definitely unacceptable. There is a reason why Saudi Arabia, which has always relied on the United States, dares to reconcile with Biden.
1, Saudi operation
The United States is a capitalist country, so it has always been "forward-looking". Wall Street in the United States is very powerful and can influence the government's decision-making. Saudi Arabia is very smart, knows the importance of Wall Street and has been making friends with Wall Street. What does Wall Street like? Needless to say, there are many Saudi Arabia, so the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Wall Street is very good. Even Biden administration officials want to sanction Saudi Arabia from top to bottom, but they have never taken any action.
2. America can be replaced.
Because of Saudi Arabia's non-cooperation, Biden has been talking about sanctions against Saudi Arabia, including re-examining relations between the two countries, withdrawing troops from Saudi Arabia, and not providing military assistance and weapons. In the past, Saudi Arabia was very afraid of the United States, but now it is different. Originally, Saudi Arabia's weapons were very advanced, and Saudi Arabia was also very rich. Are you afraid that no one will sell it? China and Saudi Arabia have always been good friends, and Dongfeng sold them. If the United States doesn't sell Saudi weapons, it can cooperate with China to push forward.
3. Economic problems
Although Saudi Arabia has money, it is not a big head. The United States has been directing Saudi Arabia, which makes Saudi Arabia very unhappy. Now I want to control oil prices and make Saudi Arabia lose more. Although it has money, it wants to absorb water for a long time. If the oil price collapses, the impact of the United States is unknown, but it will definitely be very big for Saudi Arabia!
For Saudi Arabia, it can make some unreasonable demands according to the requirements of the United States, but if it has a great impact on its own economy, Saudi Arabia will also resist it. After all, the United States is not the only one now, and most countries that cooperate with the United States have no good end. Therefore, Saudi Arabia is not only because of its self-confidence, but also for the future economic development of the country. After all, many countries can cooperate to replace the United States.
