Putin tells FatRump to STFU MOSCOW, Sept 16 (Reuters) - Russia on Monday urged countries in the Middle East and outside the region not to draw “hasty conclusions” on who staged the attacks on Saudi oil facilities. * Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, asked about the U.S. statement, said: “We have a negative attitude towards rising tensions in the region and call for all countries in the region and outside of it to avoid any hasty steps or conclusions which may deepen destabilisation.” In a separate statement on Monday, Russia’s foreign ministry said it believed that the exchange of strikes on civilian targets was “a direct consequence of the ongoing sharp military and political crisis in Yemen”. They couldn’t have made their directive to Trump any clearer. In fact, they even threw him a bone to make sure he was paying attention. “We believe it is counterproductive to use what happened to increase tensions around Iran in line with the well-known U.S. policy,” the foreign ministry said. Isn’t that nice of them to credit our policy? Lo and behold, just as the Kremlin issued its “warning,” here’s what we get from the White House: backtracking. President Trump's claim the US is “locked and loaded” may not refer to military action, the vice president’s chief of staff said Monday, calling the term tweeted by Trump “broad.” “I think that locked and loaded is a broad term and talks about the realities that we’re all far safer and more secure domestically from energy independence,”** Marc Short told reporters on the White House lawn. “This is not the 1970s oil embargo. It’s not 1990 when Iraq invaded Kuwait. We’re now a net oil exporter which means that the American market is much better protected.” Right. Nice to be reminded of who is calling the shots now.
