1. Why is the United States interested in oil in the Middle East?

History
1 answer:
Bas_tet [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

United States has about 25 billion barrels worth of proven oil reserves in US soil. The United States on average per year uses about 6.7 billion barrels of oil in vehicle fuel, certain liquid products, make technology, etc. That generates the oil industry about $750-800 billion dollars worth of oil. US already controls oil reserves in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and UAE. That's why those countries have developed so much after the Gulf War. This can gain massive profits to oil companies around Western nations. Gas companies like BP, ExxonMobil, Royal Dutch Shell, HESS, and so much other companies. Controlling middle eastern oil reserves promises Western oil industry humongous profits and promising futures for the next 50-60 years. Most people don't notice this. But the war benefits us a lot. The war also helps gains in weapons industry,keep dollar value, etc.

Sorry if confusing. May have left out some info. This is me trying to simplify everything. US Middle East interests is a very long a complex history.

Honest answer is oil. Yes, we have seven times the reserves here, but the left refuses to let us explore and develop that oil. In the USA we have over 400 years of oil in the Green River reserve alone.

I am not sure if this is what you want but hope this helps

2. How would you characterize President Obama's foreign policy? How does it compare to the foreign policy of the George W. Bush
frez [133]

Answer:

Obama's foreign policy was a bit more conciliatory toward certain countries than that of his predecessor, however, Obama also intervened militarily in other countries like his predecessor did in the past.

For example, Obama sought peace agreements with Iran and Afghanistan, while Bush was much more aggressive against these countries.

But Obama also intervened with the American military in Libya and Syria, two countries that were civil wars that have not ended yet.

Another thing to highlight is that Obama tried to normalize relations with Cuba, while Bush was much more aggresive against the Island.
