Rachel Maddow, of MSNBC, just published a book on Russian oil interests under Putin.
I haven't read her book Bailout, but I've listened to discussions about it on the network.
My comment is based on my analysis of Putin's influence upon President Trump. I detect that there's being formed a coterie of energy resource tyrants, such as Putin (to include the Venezuelan President that he's keeping within "the family"), the Saudis, the US under Trump, and even the North Korean President--all friends in the energy business (North Korea in coal) so as to at sometime in the future, possibly, exert pressure to establish an energy-resource cartel, similar to OPEC but global in its effect, particularly if it is able to draw upon the US military forces for defensive posture.
When I was in Russia in 1989 giving input into the Russian Federation Constitution framers and designers, I was well aware that in the immediate future Russia would turn to oil as its principal resource for development and worldwide distribution, starting with, of course, to Germany.
