President Biden blamed skyrocketing energy costs on the war in Ukraine on Saturday after average gasoline prices reached $5 per gallon for the first time in the U.S.
“It’s outrageous what the war in Ukraine is causing,” Mr. Biden told reporters when asked about the price of gas. He added that he would “keep pushing” to bring down costs by tapping U.S. oil reserves and importing oil from abroad.
“We’re trying very hard to make sure that we can significantly increase the number of barrels of oil that are being pumped out of the reserves.
