Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book explained how leaders and groups need each other for power: “For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.” President Biden has breathed new confidence into allied unity and resolve—and has in turn been strengthened by our international allies.
Overcoming the self-destructive America First isolationism of our recent past, Biden has rebuilt trust through collective action. Most recently, America’s continued triumphs in international energy diplomacy—ranging from reining in OPEC+ to the successful rollout of the Russian oil price caps to helping the EU work through its gas supply challenges, all in the face of tremendous skepticism—have stabilized the global energy markets and brought down prices all while cutting into Putin’s profits.
These accomplishments remain underappreciated. Contrary to Putin’s hopes that Europeans would freeze with insufficient gas to heat homes, splintering allied unity, his gas gambit has thoroughly failed. Europe has secured enough supplies to avoid an energy crunch this winter, with the proactive help of the U.S. and the international coalition, as we correctly predicted months ago.
And contrary to the analysts who gloomily forecasted Saudi Arabia’s oil intransigence would drive prices up, Biden has proven his mettle by helping the G7 and 27 EU nations realize that oil-producing nations need to sell their oil at least as much as customer nations need to purchase it.
After 62 years of one-sided bullying in the marketplace, the U.S. and its allies finally banded together to fight back.

Hilarious article. Biden has alternated friend and foe alike.

“Collective”. The go to word of the globalists.
This guy is smoking something.
This could be the WORST headline ever...
Too bad that’s now just a fantasy. Americans are lining up to bend over and take whatever the government tosses their way (yeah, yeah, many here will claim otherwise - results mean more than bloviating).
There are dozens on this site that agree with the authors.
Dozens.
Classic propaganda.: Distort the reality, demonize the opponent, glorify the Dear Leader. Works every time, if you’re a stooge.

Wow. Those must be some powerful drugs they’re (the writers) are taking.
Elon Musk 😀 LOL 🤣
Funny you should say that.
Isn’t Fortune mostly or wholly owned by the Chinese?
“Overcoming the self-destructive America First isolationism of our recent past,”
We’ve been so isolationist & inward looking recently.(Sarcasm)
Is this guy drunk?
We’ve been nothing but globalism on steroids since WW1 and WW2.
Kim Jong-Il never needed a swing coach to master the sport of golf.
Kim shot 38 under, including 11 holes-in-one, at the 7,700-yard championship course at Pyongyang in the VERY FIRST golf round of his life, according to North Korean state media. This was in 1994, when Kim was 52 years old. Even more impressive, Kim stood just 5-foot-3, yet he was able to overpower a course as long as any ever played in major championship history.

The most ridiculous spin of this situation I have seen to date.
“self-destructive America First isolationism of our recent past”
Please demonstrate how it is self-destructive and “isolation” is a bad word.
George Washington preached this. Our country prospered.
I thought his goal was to make G7 and EU nations realize that they DON'T need oil. Just green energy and rainbow farts. Did they just abandon the Green New Deal?
