March 22 (Reuters) - The United States has urged Ukraine to halt strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, warning that drone strikes risk provoking retaliation and driving up global oil prices, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The attacks helped boost oil prices that have risen nearly 4% so far since March 12, when Ukraine first started targeting Russia's energy infrastructure. A further rally in gasoline prices in the United States would weaken President Joe Biden ratings and undermine his re-election chances.

Russia and Ukraine have both used drones to strike critical infrastructure, military installations and troop concentrations in their more than two-year war, with Kyiv hitting Russian refineries and energy facilities in recent months.

Really a take that it's more important for oil prices to not increase during a US election year than it is to stop an invading army.

"Send us more money and arms at faster rate and you have a deal"

Should be the response

Not really.

"If you continue to fuck with energy prices morons will put someone in power that will completely cut off all funding from you and hand you over to Russia"

We want Ukraine to stop striking Russian infrastructure in an attempt to defend its sovereignty, but we're fine with Israel leveling Gaza in an attempt to destroy Hamas.

I'm sure a large percent of voters care more about their gas prices than Ukraine. And people probably still have leftover "Biden did that" stickers to slap on gas stations the second prices go up.
