The UAE was talking about getting a credit swap line from the US. It could be the condition.

Or it is also part of a long term plan of the US to control all energy routes. It will keep Hormuz closed and try a new pipeline via the UAE to the Gulf of Oman.

Fragmentation of the energy producers is another goal. New Alaskan LNG projects have been approved and are all the rage among senators:

A happy coincidence:

"Alaska LNG will deliver vital #EnergySecurity for our military and allies in the Pacific. Thank you @SenDanSullivan for your continued engagement and advocacy."

The US would control the following:

- Baltic sea via pipeline threats.

- Corridor from the Caspian sea from Azerbaijan through Armenia to Turkey.

- Venezuela.

- UAE corridor to the Gulf of Oman.

Probably much more than that. Grabbing the Arctic route via Greenland has failed so far.
