a shadow of it's former self to control oil supply and therefore the cost of global fuel and therefore manufacturing costs. China has limited oil reserves and needs imports to keep its economy alive. So control of oil has always been geopolitical. That's why the US has been involved in the ME quagmire since the early 70'S. Not so much anymore. Fuck them, we don't need ME or Russian oil.
And why would India form an alliance with the US on bilateral energy supply and trade. Because the US can produce oil India needs for its future, it's safe from ME conflict and the US is a reliable partner. What other global producer can claim that? China? Not hardly.
But your Democrat leaders will take that away from America and give control back to the ME and Russian producers. Right?
Saying China is irrelevant to the US on global energy policy reveals you ignorance. We have the one thing China lacks. Energy independence. If you can't understand that your an idiot.
I have been in the oil business for almost 30 years. You know shit about it. That would make you a likely candidate for Biden's Energy Secretary. You know like Obama's Secretary who was quoted saying he hoped for $9 a gallon gasoline prices. So his buddies could make millions of dollars off solar and wind farms.
Don't post about what you don't know. And Trump fucked up COVID, try staying on topic for a change.
