Saudi Arabia Offers Russia Deal For Backing Off Assad Support

[Serpentine]

Does this include the starving nation of Iran

We are in the process of becoming oil independent, and it comes with difficulties.

I would like to see KSA stop its oil exports for few years, the scene of fat rich princes chasing each other in the streets to eat would be indescribable.

Saudis want Russia to forget Syria for $15 billion? That is a comic. Perhaps, Saudis need to learn few things about strategic consideration bit more and understand Syrian position and location is much more than money and gas sale. When strategic interests are involved money comes to low in list of priorities. That is why even with economic crisis US and EU reluctant to sell asset to certain countries including Saudis and GCC. That is why Dubai port could not buy US port operation or Chinese telecom companies are not allowed in US.

Russia sold Saddam Hussein for only 4 Billion dollars, if Russia stick with Assad, then there will be no place for Russia in the future Syrian government,

Show the Vodka addicts this:

And they will be like this:

That's funny coming from a guy that his country almost solely depends on oil for income.

I love your sense of humor

No seriously, Russia's stand is on principle, therefore, It's insane to assume that Saudi would make a proposal, especially when Russia has strategic interests such as Tartus. Similar to Iran.

Iranian population is triple of that of the KSA, it has vast areas of arable lands, it's oil production is 25% of the Saudi's, and yet it's oil exports is more than the Saudis by 3%. You decide my friend..

Not to mention Iranian rich water, timber, mineral and agricultural resources, and mild climate..

Not everything can be achieved with oil money, it's only a matter of time until they realize that.

Russians are much cheaper than what you think.

The Soviet union* fell during the same period of the first gulf war, after that new Russia and Iraq barely restored relations till after 2003.
Not sure where you got your information from.

Iran's issue isn't about oil embargo ONLY. But sanctions are the worst to their economy.

I think either I told it badly or you misunderstood me.
Your friend, @Yzd Khalifa replied to my comment with a post somehow insulting to my country, actually he always does when I say anything about KSA, he has a personal thing with me, isn't that right Yzd?
I didn't say Iran is oil independent, I meant with all the sanctions, we are being forced to reduce our dependence on oil. And the figures you posted above are a bit outdated, since Iran's oil exports has been decreased to one third. Yzd was making jokes, so I wanted to tell him not to be proud about his country, because it will starve if it stops its oil exports completely. So, I wasn't the one who started it. Maybe you can tell your friends to stop bringing Iran in to every thread whenever an Iranian posts in it, fair enough? Nothing personal here.
Now shall we stay to topic?

It's not only directed at you but all people who think that the GCC are fully dependent on oil while their' are either more dependent or just starving. This oil thingy is starting to get old.

And regarding @Yzd Khalifa tell me about him

Take it easy bro, I haven't logged in here to cry out but having fun. The Saudi-Iranian tensions are all about both sides' far right wing(ers) that's all. Back in the Shah days we had had disagreements but we always manage to get through the tunnel

Wonder why they give such reactions about GCC, when they see people talk about their country in such negative ways 24/7 on pdf.

In this case, you have two choices to do in actual life, either you kneel or bow before that guy in the picture, otherwise you can only cry and weep through your only outlet which happens to be the WWW.:azn:
