An influential U.S. senator on Monday called on Washington to suspend all cooperation with Saudi Arabia over Riyadh's decision to support Russia's war in Ukraine by cutting oil production.

Last week, Riyadh, Moscow and other major oil producers agreed to make significant production cuts to boost oil prices. The United States condemned the move as a concession to Moscow that would hurt the global economy.

"You simply cannot play both sides in this conflict: either you support the rest of the free world in trying to stop a war criminal from violently wiping out an entire country, or you

"The United States must immediately freeze all aspects of our cooperation with Saudi Arabia, including any arms sales and security cooperation beyond what is absolutely necessary to defend U.S. personnel and interests," Menendez said in a statement.

"I will not green-light any cooperation with Riyadh until the Kingdom reassesses its position with respect to the war in Ukraine. Enough is enough," Menendez said.

Menendez is horrified about attacks on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine.

"There simply is no room to play both sides of this conflict – either you support the rest of the free world in trying to stop a war criminal from violently wiping off an entire country off of the map, or you support him," Menendez said in an apparent reference to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
