WASHINGTON - Republican US senators from oil states who recently introduced legislation to remove American troops from Saudi Arabia said on Saturday they had spoken with three officials from the kingdom and urged them to take concrete action to cut crude output.
The call was led by Senators Dan Sullivan and Kevin Cramer, members of the Senate Armed Services Committee, who introduced legislation in March to remove US troops, Patriot missiles and Thaad defence systems from Saudi Arabia unless it cut output. Sullivan, of Alaska, applauded Saudi Arabia's taking part in the agreement to cut output, but said"actions speak louder than words."
The United States, the world's top oil producer, is gradually cutting about two million bpd of output as reduced demand and low oil prices force some heavily leveraged producers into bankruptcy.
