When one oil and gas producer starts to manipulate prices and sabotage the economies of half the planet, world leaders must take a stand to stop illegal practices. As most countries have antitrust legislation in operation in their own nation-states, there is no excuse for world leaders to ignore the elephant in the room. At times it seems, that there may be another game at play in the corridors of power. One country takes action to drive up the price of vital commodities. Rather than complaint, the rest just start selling oil and gas at high volumes at record prices to countries that are the most in need. Best Regards, Editorial Board.
