President Joe Biden will soon announce a release of 15 million barrels of oil from the nation’s emergency reserves. OPEC, along with a Russia-led group of oil producers known together as OPEC+, said last week that it would cut oil production by 2 million barrels a day, a move that will likely raise oil prices. Weekly average price per barrel of oil since January 2020As of Oct. 14, weekly oil prices were trending up – over $88 a barrel, but are still much lower than the summer highs. "Oil prices could remain elevated as a result of the decision by OPEC+ that could further restrict supply," said Devin Gladden, AAA manager of federal affairs. From March 4 through Oct. 7, the U.S. has released 168.8 million barrels, according the the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Biden’s move comes about two weeks after OPEC and its oil-exporting allies announced it would cut oil production by 2 million barrels per day to boost prices.

International refugee charities and NGOs have accused the Maltese armed forces of having instructed a merchant ship carrying 23 rescued people, to disembark the people in Egypt rather than to the safest and nearest port of call. “In line with maritime conventions, RCC Malta is legally responsible for coordinating any rescue operations in the event of an emergency or accident within its SAR region,” the NGOs said. Instead, the rescued people were forcibly taken 760 nautical miles to Egypt. Egypt is a signatory to the 1951 Geneva Convention, but the country also lacks an adequate national legal framework for the protection of refugees and asylum seekers. “As organisations engaging in SAR activities at sea, we denounce the forcible transfer of these 23 people to Egypt and call for consequences to Malta’s blatant violations of maritime and international law,” the NGOs said.

In a joint statement, the group demanded the suspension of the House of Representatives (HoR) and the High Council of State (HCS). The bloc held the HoR accountable for creating governments on the grounds of quotas in a notable absence of basic standards for state management, such as efficiency, integrity, and patriotism, as they put it.
