世界杯上普京频频摊手,俄罗斯和沙特在场外发生了什么?
2018-06-15 18:38 俄罗斯 /沙特 /普京

世界杯揭幕战-俄罗斯5-0沙特 切里舍夫替补2球

昨晚,俄罗斯在世界杯揭幕战上连进5个球的捷报刷屏了全球人民的“票圈”。

与此同时,俄罗斯总统普京向沙特王储穆罕默德-本-萨勒曼“摊手”的表情包也走红网络。

▲俄罗斯队进第1个球时,普京尴尬摊手,并与萨勒曼握手以示友谊第一比赛第二。

▲俄罗斯队射进第3个球时,普京又傲娇摊手,满脸无奈状。

▲俄罗斯队射进第5个球时,普京再次摊手,好像在说:太不好意思了,怎么进这么多呢。

有网友解读称,普京这是在说“再来5个球”,更有网友调侃这摊手状与白云黑土俩夫妇看球的状态有得一拼了。

虽然,普京在萨勒曼面前表现得很无奈,但是赛后立即致电俄罗斯队主帅切尔切索夫表示祝贺,并希望球员们再接再厉继续保持这样地状态。

而沙特这边则被啪啪打脸,因为此前沙特油长法利赫曾很有信心地表示,预计沙特会赢,有望冲击24年来的世界杯首胜。

虽然俄罗斯在球场上狂虐沙特,但在场外,两国的关系可不一般。

此次世界杯,普京一早就向萨勒曼发出邀请,请他赴俄看球,顺带谈谈石油和能源业务。

俄罗斯和沙特是全球石油市场中两个最大的参与者,夸张点说,两国具备“谈笑间油价一锤定音”的能力。

据俄罗斯塔斯社报道,6月14日,萨勒曼前往克里姆林宫会见普京,两人在扩大能源合作方面达成了共识,尤其是天然气和石油,并且有意向进行长期合作。

俄能源部长诺瓦克也与沙特油长法利赫碰面,两国大体上同意逐步退出减产协议。该协议是在去年末的欧佩克(OPEC)会议上达成的,通过限制各国的石油产量,来缓解全球石油供应过剩的问题。

但是,俄罗斯和沙特都打着自己的小算盘。他们实际上想要增加石油产量,以打压其他OPEC成员国,联手掌控住不断飙升的油价。

此外,俄罗斯国内的石油公司也在不断游说普京,希望寻求更多的石油出口。

最近,活跃在委内瑞拉和中东的俄罗斯石油公司提高了产量,以追求较低的石油价格。因为当价格高于每桶75美元时,他们需要支付较高的边际公司税率。

为了共同的利益,两国一拍即合。

不过,别看沙特和俄罗斯现在“哥俩好”,其实之前一直是宿敌。

上个世纪,沙特与苏联在宗教问题上产生分歧。

60年代,曾有媒体提问时任沙特国王费萨尔:“为什么不在俄罗斯设立大使馆?”国王回答:

“如果能让莫斯科信仰神,明天我就在那里建使馆。”

此外,两国在诸多问题上立场不一,关系僵持不下。

比如,近年来,沙特将伊朗视为威胁,而俄罗斯却和伊朗搞暧昧,这让沙特对俄罗斯失去信任。而俄罗斯方面对于沙特资助一部分车臣叛乱分子也感到很恼火。

直到2016年12月,当时油价狂跌,两国为了自身利益决定坐下来好好谈谈,最终达成减产协议,随后国际油价缓慢回升,双方都心满意足。

最重要的转折点是在去年10月。中东呈现一盘乱局之时,沙特老国王萨勒曼突访俄罗斯,开启破冰之旅,成为1932年沙特建国以来第一位到访莫斯科的在位国王。

众所周知,金梯是沙特领导人出访的标配。但是,那次访俄有点尴尬,亮瞎的镀金扶梯运行到半程时罢工了。

当时,老国王还在向闪光灯频频挥手,挥着挥着脚下突然停住,他只能撩起袍子自己走了下去。

不过这个小插曲丝毫没有影响到双方的热络会谈,沙特不仅带去了金梯,还给俄罗斯准备了“大礼”。

据俄媒报道,两国达成了30亿美元的军购协议,沙特从俄罗斯购买了S-400型防空导弹系统、科尔涅特反坦克导弹系统等军事装备。此外,还签署了涉及石油、天然气、经贸等多领域的合作协议。

半岛电视台分析,美国作为沙特的坚实盟友逐渐抽离中东乱局,影响了沙特的利益。因此,沙特权衡利弊后重新考虑对俄关系,将天平摇摆向了俄罗斯那端。

今年,特朗普因觉得油价过高而抨击包括沙特在内的欧佩克各成员国。

据《纽约时报》报道,几十年来,每当油价上涨时,美国官员都会私下向沙特寻求帮助,促使欧佩克提高产量,特朗普政府也是如此。但是,这届白宫似乎并不满足于将对话只限于私人外交。

4月份以来,尽管油价较为稳定,特朗普依旧公开抨击欧佩克。本周三,他还在推特上吐槽欧佩克油价太高。

另一方面,特朗普退出了伊朗核协议,还跟委内瑞拉闹别扭。有分析称,如果他对伊朗和委内瑞拉进行石油制裁,势必降低世界市场的石油量,导致油价飙升。

在特朗普用推特炮轰欧佩克后,俄罗斯和沙特提出石油增产。随后,国际油价暴跌,对美国页岩油造成强大压力。《华尔街日报》分析,这是两国在联手制衡美国。

看来众口难调,寻求一个让大家都满意的油价并不容易。

下周(6月22日),俄罗斯将到OPEC总部维也纳参加油产大会,届时就是油老大沙特的主场了。

两个产油大国的任何一个决议都将对石油市场产生不小的影响,外事儿(xjb-waishier)拭目以待。

In the World Cup, Putin frequently stalled. What happened to Russia and Saudi Arabia outside the court?
2018-06-15 18:38 Russia / Saudi / Putin

World Cup Opener - Russia 5-0 Saudi Chelishev Substitute 2 Ball

Last night, Russia successfully scored five goals in the World Cup opener and swept the globe's “ballot”.

At the same time, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s expression package to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Ben-Salman also became popular.


▲ When the Russian team scored the first goal, Putin took a hand in hand and shakes hands with Salman to show friendship in the second game.


▲When the Russian team scored the third goal, Putin once again played with his hands and looked helpless.


▲ When the Russian team scored the fifth goal, Putin once again spread his hand and seemed to say: I am too embarrassed to know how to enter so much.

Some netizens explained that Putin was saying “five more goals,” and even more friends ridiculed the status of the couple and the white clouds and black earth.


Although Putin was very helpless in the face of Salman, but immediately after the game call the Russian team coach Cherceov expressed his congratulations and hope that the players continue to continue to maintain this state.

The Saudi side was beaten, because the Saudi oil leader Faleh once said with great confidence that Saudi Arabia is expected to win and is expected to hit the first World Cup win in 24 years.


Although Russia abuses Saudi Arabia on the court, on the off-site, the relationship between the two countries may not be normal.

In this World Cup, Putin sent an invitation to Salman early in the morning asking him to go to Russia to watch the game and pass on the oil and energy business.

Russia and Saudi Arabia are the two largest players in the global oil market. They exaggerate the point that the two countries have the ability to "laugh about the oil price".


According to the Russian News Agency, on June 14, Salman met with Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin. The two reached a consensus on expanding energy cooperation, especially natural gas and petroleum, and they are interested in long-term cooperation.

Russian Energy Minister Novak also met with Saudi Oil Minister Fareh where the two countries agreed in principle to gradually withdraw from the production cuts agreement. The agreement was reached at the OPEC meeting at the end of last year to alleviate the global oil supply surplus by limiting the oil production of countries.


However, Russia and Saudi Arabia have their own calculations. They actually want to increase oil production in order to suppress other OPEC member states and jointly control the soaring oil prices.

In addition, Russian oil companies are constantly lobbying for Putin, hoping to seek more oil exports.

Recently, Russian oil companies active in Venezuela and the Middle East have increased their production to pursue lower oil prices. Because when the price is higher than 75 US dollars per barrel, they need to pay a higher marginal corporate tax rate.

For common interests, the two countries hit it off.


However, don’t look at Saudi Arabia and Russia’s “good for both brothers”. In fact, they were always good friends before.

In the last century, Saudi Arabia and the Soviet Union had differences on religious issues.

In the 1960s, when asked by the media, he was the King of Saudis Faisal: "Why not set up an embassy in Russia?" The King replied:

"If you can make Moscow believe in God, I will build an embassy there tomorrow."

In addition, the two countries have different positions on many issues and the relationship is deadlocked.

For example, in recent years, Saudi Arabia has regarded Iran as a threat and Russia has been plagued with Iran. This has caused Saudi Arabia to lose trust in Russia. The Russian side is also very annoyed that Saudi finances a group of Chechen rebels.


Until December 2016, when the price of oil fell drastically, the two countries decided to sit down for their own benefit and talk about it. Finally, an agreement on production cuts was reached. After that, international oil prices picked up slowly and both parties were satisfied.

The most important turning point was in October of last year. When the Middle East presented a chaos, Saudi old King Salman made a surprise visit to Russia and started an ice-breaking tour. He became the first king to visit Moscow since the founding of Saudi Arabia in 1932.


As we all know, the golden ladder is the standard for Saudi leaders to visit. However, the visit to Russia was a bit embarrassing and the bright gold-plated escalator went on strike halfway.

At that time, the old king was still waved to the flash, waved and stopped suddenly, he could only pick up his robe and walked down.


However, this episode did not affect the heated talks between the two parties. Saudi Arabia not only brought the golden ladder, but also prepared a “gift” for Russia.

According to reports by the Russian media, the two countries have reached an agreement of 3 billion U.S. dollars in arms purchases. Saudi Arabia has purchased S-400 air defense missile systems and Kornet anti-tank missile systems and other military equipment from Russia. In addition, cooperation agreements involving oil, natural gas, trade, and other fields were signed.

Al Jazeera analyzed that the United States, as a solid ally of Saudi Arabia, gradually withdrew from the mess in the Middle East and affected the interests of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, after sand weighed the pros and cons, it reconsidered the relations with Russia and oscillated the balance to Russia.


This year, Trump criticized OPEC members including Saudi Arabia for feeling that oil prices were too high.

According to the “New York Times” report, for decades, whenever the price of oil rises, US officials will privately seek help from Saudi Arabia and urge OPEC to increase production, as does the Trump administration. However, this time the White House did not seem content to restrict dialogue to private diplomacy.

Since April, despite the relatively stable oil prices, Trump has still openly attacked OPEC. This Wednesday, he also booed OPEC oil prices too high.


Trump, on the other hand, withdrew from Iran’s nuclear agreement and fought with Venezuela. Some analysts said that if he imposes oil sanctions on Iran and Venezuela, it will inevitably reduce the amount of oil in the world market, leading to soaring oil prices.

After Trump bombarded OPEC with Twitter, Russia and Saudi Arabia raised oil production. Afterwards, the international oil price plummeted and exerted strong pressure on US shale oil. The Wall Street Journal analyzed that it is the two countries that are jointly checking the balance of the United States.

It seems difficult to adjust. It is not easy to seek a price that will satisfy everyone.


Next week (June 22nd), Russia will attend OPEC headquarters in Vienna to participate in the oil production conference, which will be the home of the oil boss Saudi Arabia.

Any resolution of two big oil-producing countries will have a significant impact on the oil market, and foreigners (xjb-waishier) will wait and see.
