Even Saudi Arabia is supporting Russia and they’re an American ally

In what way? I think a lot of people are acting like anyone not actively sending arms or money to Ukraine must therefore be “supporting” Russia. Has the Saudi Arabian Kingdom given any weapons to Russia? Have they given any loans to plug the holes in the national budget while the country engages in open warfare? Or are they just viewing a European conflict as irrelevant to their own aims and goals?

they have timed movements in the oil market to be more supportive of Russian economic needs

hmm okay. I mean, they are both OPEC members after all. It sounds like the war just isn’t altering Saudi decision making the way the US would like.
