It is kind of funny to see that there are some pundits who seem to think that this is a genius move by Putin:

Zerohedge is not a pundit site. It is passion project from a fake libertarian who calls himself "Tyler Durden." It frequently flat out lies: "As for the US stepping in a providing emergency cover to nations who may be caught in the crossfire, sorry - Joe already drained a third of the SPR to get Democrats reelected."

That's just made up. Biden released oil to oil companies with the agreement to buy it back at a fixed price. Zerohedge has zerocredibility.
