North America has its own large oil reserves and AFAIK its countries mostly trade it with each other. Europe chooses to buy oil and gas from Russia, Saudis and other Asian countries because it's cheaper due to geographic proximity.

He will call Putin a "smart guy" and "advise" Ukraine to agree to all Russian demands.
