Obama clears way for oil drilling off US coasts
"Reversing a ban on oil drilling off most U.S. shores, President Barack Obama on Wednesday announced an expansive new policy that could put oil and natural gas platforms in waters along the southern Atlantic coastline, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and part of Alaska."
The USSR was a major oil producer. Russia is still the second largest oil producer in the world.
Is Obama trying to emulate the former Soviet Union by increasing U.S. oil production?
