The media is discussing Biden's preparations for a trip to Saudi Arabia, whose government he called a "pariah" in 2018 for allegedly intentionally killing a Washington Post journalist. Now Biden's priorities are in question: oil plays a big role.

Moreover, the Biden Administration is discussing a possible lifting of the ban on offensive arms sales to Saudi Arabia.
