Change: Russia and China Resume Supplying Iran With Gasoline

So much for electing The One to increase our standing in the world.

Reuters reported:

Russian oil giant LUKOIL has resumed gasoline sales into Iran in partnership with China’s state-run firm Zhuhai Zhenrong, even as the United States urges the international community to be tough with Tehran.Iran is the world’s fifth-largest oil exporter but lacks adequate refining capacity to meet domestic demand for motor fuel, forcing it to import up to 40 percent of its requirements.

Russia and China, both permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, signed up to the latest round of U.N. sanctions on Iran, but refused to support measures that targeted the Islamic Republic’s oil and gas sector. …

I hope this doesn’t mean there’s another world apology tour in Obama’s future. Maybe if Hillary gives a few more speeches about spreading the wealth around China and Russia will start to see things our way.

Reaganite Republican linked – thanks!
