It seems that the Western media in its propaganda campaign, due to the Ukrainian war, which made it lose a lot of credibility, is not limited to mobilizing in a parallel moral war, but it turns many facts, some of them closer to mathematical calculations that cannot be interpreted and exaggerated media misinformation.
A striking example of this is the campaign launched by that media against the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries "OPEC" and its allies from outside the organization within the "OPEC +" alliance, even before their decision Wednesday to reduce production by two million barrels per day. The most important and most dangerous aspect of that crude propaganda campaign was the massive promotion because Saudi Arabia and Russia agreed (and the matter is raised in the media, suggesting that they “conspired”) on a production policy that would keep oil prices above $100 a barrel.
In addition to the denial of this "understanding" by the concerned officials in the two countries, it is illogical that this could be possible in light of the current market turmoil and expectations of global economic stagnation and the upcoming packages of Western economic sanctions on Russia, especially with regard to Moscow's oil exports. The truly crude fallacy in all Western media coverage, and what is reported about it from the media around the world (including some Arabs who wrongly and disastrously imagine that this shows the power of the Arab oil states), is the exaggeration that the “pressures” of the US administration are on Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states to increase oil production. Failed. It is as if the "kindness" Washington wants to reduce oil prices, while Saudi Arabia and Russia want the opposite and harm the global economy!!
This ridiculous "joke" is no longer fooling ordinary citizens in Western countries who no longer believe the claims of their politicians that Russia is responsible for the high prices and cost of living, and awareness has begun to leak to the masses that their governments are responsible and not Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom politicians seek to demonize to distance the blame from their failure.

 And if the ordinary public does not know, and can be easily misled, one does not know how journalists and media professionals fall into this trap even though it does not require knowledge of space technology to arrive at logical facts.

 For starters, OPEC’s reduction of two million barrels per day does not aim to raise oil prices even to a hundred dollars a barrel (which has not actually happened, prices are still lower), but rather to avoid the collapse of the global oil market with an excess supply that accumulates with weak demand, and the rebalancing of the market later becomes catastrophic, as It requires massive production cuts that harm producers and consumers alike.
