>Yukos to continue shipments of crude to US
So what's the state of oil politics in Russia these days? Are Russians angling to replace Saudi Arabia as the swing producer? Do they want to use production to get political leverage, or do they just want to make lots of money? If the U.S. gets its hands on Iraq's spigots, and Russia is more or less friendly, the Saudis will find themselves rather less important.
