      G7 to release up to 100 million barrels of oil and diesel from reserves onto market

      source

      called it

      …

      European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen also said on social media that she was “pleased by the G7 countries’ decision not to impose export bans on allies and by the continued solidarity between partners”. On Friday, the Commission had warned that such a ban “would undermine confidence in the US as a reliable partner”.

      /sigh

      They won’t. Prices are even higher in Europe. Diesel is like 11 dollars a gallon in my town.
