The US might as well print gasoline: Ghalibaf ridiculed "paper oil"

Iran is aware of what is happening in the market of "paper oil" in the United States. This was stated on the social network by the speaker of the Iranian parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf.

"We are aware of what is happening in the paper oil market, including companies hired to influence oil futures transactions. We also see a broader campaign to create an information background and political pressure. But let's see if they can turn this into "real fuel" at gas stations— or maybe print gasoline molecules!" — ironically, Ghalibaf, quoted by ParsToday Russian.

In recent days, the US government, by selling paper oil contracts, has been trying to intervene in the oil market and restrain the rise in oil prices, notes ParsToday Russian.
