Crude awakening: How MBS wields Saudi Arabia’s oil power
Description
Saudi Arabia is experiencing a once in a lifetime moment of transformation, funded by their control over the world's oil supply. The nation is taking risks on a global scale like never before – and the ‘maverick’ prince Mohammed bin Salman, stands at the forefront of this change of strategy. Arthur Snell sits down with Bradley Hope, co-author of Blood and Oil: Mohammed bin Salman's Ruthless Quest for Global Power to try and understand the ruler of Saudi Arabia.
- “He went from completely unknown with no power or authority to the ruler of Saudiu Arabia through some cavalier and cunning activity.”
- “Business people of the world who had a moral objection to MBS are now back in the country cap in hand asking for investment.”
