But the move of touching fist has triggered strong criticism of some US media. The Washington Post pointed out that touching the fist means that the relationship between the two "accepts and intimacy" between the two, which was previously stigmatized to Byden saying that Saudi Arabia's promise to turn Saudi "Bachemid".

At the beginning of the stage, Biden called Saudi Arabia as a "pariah" and promised to sanction Saudi Arabia in terms of human rights. Nowadays, in order to deal with the deepening of the domestic oil crisis, Biden has to say that many human rights organizations and American media have called Biden the "betrayer".

The fundamental goal "increased oil" seems to have not been achieved

The high gasoline prices have promoted the soaring inflation in the United States, and the CPI index even exceeded 10%. And Biden is about to usher in the mid -term elections in November. The latest polls show that its support rate is even less than 30%, the lowest level of presidential president.

However, White House officials believe that their diplomatic efforts will help to reach a consensus increase in yield when the next meeting can be reached in the next meeting.

The energy analyst of the Strategic and International Research Center, Ben Kahel, said: "Now everyone's attention is concentrated at the OPEC+conference on August 3. Come to achieve it. But we believe that the demand for oil is declining, and I am not sure if these countries will believe that the market needs more crude oil supply. "

Although U.S. officials have announced that they have reached a broad agreement with Saudi Arabia to expand oil supply, build 5G telecommunications networks, and open Saudi airspace to Israeli commercial flights, etc., the fundamental purpose of "increasing oil" on the outside world can reach Essence

Reuters pointed out that in a joint statement issued by Saudi Arabia after the United Summit did not mention the increase in oil supply, only the two countries "reiterated their commitment to the stable global energy market." "Market balance".

The United States expects to improve Israel and Saudi Arabia

However, under the mediation of the United States, it seems that the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Israel is slightly eased. Saudi Arabia said it will open routes to all airlines to pave the way for more commercial flights to Israel.

In addition, Israel, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia also reached an agreement to mediate by the United States. According to the agreement, a small international peacekeeping team led by the United States will withdraw from Tron Island with strategic significance. The island's control is transferred to Saudi Arabia in 2017.

The United States and Israel hope to help Israel more integrate into the region through these measures, including improving relations with Saudi Arabia.

But Saudi Arabia does not seem to buy it, and its foreign minister said that this is not a prelude to improved the relationship between the two parties. He said that Saudi Arabia did not participate in the establishment of the Bay-Israel Defense Alliance to fight against Iran.

However, Saudi Arabia and the UAE have always wanted to solve their concerns about the Iranian missile plan. Saudi Arabia and Israel were not satisfied with the initial Iran nuclear agreement of the former President Obama government, and welcomed Trump when he exited the agreement.

On Thursday, the United States and Israel signed a joint commitment to refuse to accept Iran's own nuclear weapons and guarantee to Saudi Arabia and the UAE that if the negotiations fail, Iran continues to develop nuclear weapons, and the United States is willing to take force as the final means.

However, Iran's Tehran has always denied its plan to develop nuclear weapons.
