‘A Word Salad Of Bureaucratic BS’: Democrats Say To Fight Russia, Buy Oil From Iran

…Two Russian tankers, Pegas and Linda, “have been ferrying illicit Iranian crude oil in recent months, a move experts see as a scheme to evade U.S. sanctions and signal an increase in Tehran-Moscow relations,” reported the Washington Free Beacon’s Adam Kredo on Thursday, relying on information provided by United Against Nuclear Iran. “Illicit Iranian oil shipments jumped by 40 percent in 2021, with China, the United Arab Emirates, Syria, Venezuela, and Russia being the largest importers.” Russia “has joined its ally China in participating in Iranian sanctions-busting schemes to smuggle crude oil and gas,” said UANI, implying that purchasing Iranian oil would reward Russia’s geostrategic aims, not punish them.
