Deservingly, he has been praised for his courage and clear-headed reading of realpolitik.

Is Trump’s America trying to outdo the Opec cartel on oil clout? Here’s why this game won’t work
Subscribe to enjoy similar stories. From a certain angle, US President Donald Trump is doing in a matter of weeks what other leaders could never have dreamt of: Assembling an oil cartel with sufficient sway to rival Opec and acquiring a kill switch for the energy-importing economy of America’s prime geopolitical rival, China. Combine Trump’s supposed hegemony over the Americas since the capture of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on 3 January with control over a post-revolution Iran, and you’re at about 42% of global oil production.
