Saudi Arabia plays no direct role in Russia's war against Ukraine. The Persian Gulf kingdom isn't providing weapons to Ukrainians nor are they siding with the Russians. And yet the oil producing giant is one key factor in energy prices that have shot through the roof since Russian forces first entered Ukraine back in February.
So we're going to take a closer look at record high gas prices forcing President Biden to play nice with Saudi Arabia ... the president has confirmed he'll visit the country next month. 
Then we head back to Ukraine where the Russian offensive in the eastern part of the country is grinding on with devastating consequences, both for the local population there and the outgunned Ukrainian army, which has taken a lot of casualties over the last month.
