US government has 715 barrel million in Reserve

"We will continue to encourage oil-producing nations to increase their output,"
Why would they increase output when they can sell their oil now twice as high?
All these sanctions will hurt Russia as much as us...

Japan will release 7.5 million barrels of oil from its emergency reserves
This seems like the obvious step to control a shortage and rising fuel prices.
Yet the LDP government announced n the preceding days massive subsidies directly to oil companies and distributors to hold down prices.
It seems like that was just another excuse for a wealth transfer from the public to Japan Inc.

Put an oil embargo on China and problem solved immediately. China has a massive strategic oil reserve anyway. Their consumption is also reduced because of their zero covid strategy.

If the other current administration in DC would re-open petroleum production in the US prices would come down and many issues would be solved. Russia holds the world hostage as long as the price escalates.

From my experience living on this planet, it is well known that the global elites
and their cabals in politics and administration only care about their own gains
rather the well being of the greater majority.

Japan doing it's part to help stabilize prices, during an aggressive, expansionist Russia, trying to invade and conquer Ukraine, committing war crimes as we speak, increasing prices for us all, Japan and few other countries are doing the heavy lifting in releasing oil reserves to help the rest of the world. Fact

So if Japan releases from their reserves, but 90% is purchased from the Middle East, this is only hedging against an OPEC rise, not a lack of Russian imports, no?

How about, stop relying on oil ?

step 1 they will release the oil.
step 2 when relased oil will be used they will need to buy new oil.question is where and for how much?
step 3 question-what is solved at the end?
oil sellers have no reason to reduce their profits because of wish of some government.
