The Secretary of the United Kingdom, Ed Miliband, hopes to use the summit to promote his vision of local renewable power, which, according to him, will release the country with fossil fuels and the oscillations of wild gas prices which have harmed industry and consumers since the large-scale invasion of Ukraine.
The Trump administration considers this account as a direct attack on its interests, which it describes as “energy domination” through the production and export of fossil fuels. He also claims that the vision underestimates the vital role that gas plays in energy security in countries like the United Kingdom, the United States is the second largest supplier of natural gas in Britain.
In a speech last month, Wright said: “We shamelessly pursue an American energy production and infrastructure policy.” He described the devastating impacts of climate change a “compromise” on economic progress of the 20th century.
He also supported the United Kingdom for moving heavy industries in Asia before bringing the products back. “The net profit is higher prices and less jobs for British citizens, higher greenhouse gas emissions – and all this is a climate policy?” He said.
Some American politicians close to Trump also chose a fight with British co-animators. Senior Republican officials have criticized the AIE, an energy club based in Paris, of which the United States is a member.
In February, Senator John Barrasso of Wyoming accused the organization and its executive director Fatih Birol of rotation artificially the prospects of coal, oil and gas in its annual forecasts, which are influential guides for energy investment. Barrasso and other legislators demanded in December that the AIE “should make it strong and clearly that it does not approve of the end of investments in oil, natural gas and coal”.
