Negotiator at the table, i like our chances of having an american first global accord rather than a Global Forest the global first. The fact that we have 195 countries around this table, and they range from developing countries to developed countries, it seems like there were responsibilities, as the exceptional country at the table, and opportunity for the United States and United States business to be at that table and influence Global Energy policy ourat the same time sell products, goods and technologies as part of the solution for many other countries. The export opportunities and diplomatic ones seem too great to turn down. Host what part of the deal do want him to renegotiate . Guest i think we start with the pledge, that is to say the 26 to 28 reduction pledge. It seems unrealistic. I think it disadvantages the United States when you consider that other countries have much more modest pledges, and in some cases, like china, they continues to increase their co2 emissions and Gre
Secondly, even if we are producing okay a few hundred thousand barrels a day more, that in no way changes our linkage to the Global Oil Price and the exposure to a price spike. In fact, if anything, its both the fact that we are connected to the crude Oil Global Market and the fact that we are and i believe will continue to be major oil product exporters. We are exposed just as in that anecdote i gave about britain in 2000, we are exposed to the Global Oil Price spike and thats really the modern issue in terms of what the sprol does for us. Point being, if were allowed to compete in the Global Economy well have a more robust oil and gas industry in this country than well have if were not allowed to compete with a more robust industry were less dependent on the sprol . Again, im sorry, senator i dont its not only the eia but the other studies that have shown that by lifting the oil export ban, we not only, panned our industry we create more jobs and Economic Activity in our country so w
Hell beides to do it, an amazing speaker but hes got own. O it on his [multiple reporters speaking] his at a going to take t slow pace. Take a break and try to figure out what we need to do to get this country moving. Would you bring that up . I would hope not. Looking for words, integrity, create so much trouble. I dont think so, to be honest with you. Or said when it would be . I did not. Affair . Ing about an well, then thats their that way. O interpret this is something that i think is important to the american anybody in leadership, male or female, should be a man integrity. That is nothing personally about anybody. Thats kind of an assumption, when you reference livingston. He talking about . I was here at the time, and it was total chaos here. I dont want to see that happening again. Now, were oom just members urging paul ryan to run . No. Heres nothing about the next speaker or anything. Its about taking this in a slow way and see if we can find Common Ground and thats what we
That you please keep your to no more than five minutes. Admiral blair thank you. I have the feeling that everything has been said but not by everybody, so we will fill in notes. Sen. Murkowski thank you for recognizing that. Admiral blair as we approach the 40th anniversary of the creation of the Strategic Petroleum reserve, a lot of the Energy Landscape has changed but the three things that are the same oil market is volatile, american businesses, and American Families are vulnerable, and the spr is our only shortterm line of the defense on supply interruptions, and it would be full hearty to draw down the single weapon we have to counteract Oil Supply Disruptions and price spikes. Madam chairman, you emphasized that your concern was National Security and that is my background and i agree. But Economic Security and National Security are tightly intertwined. The geopolitical actions are causing a disruption in Global Supply and there is a great pressure for military action. When i was
Reason and we believe thats the number it takes after being significant operational analysis to do Nuclear Deterrents and to do a largescale campaign and we need a large number of bombers. So were trying to keep prices independent and variable so we can afford that number of airplanes and staying on a very deliberate track on this program, limiting requirements changes and growth. Staying on the acquisition timeliness are really, really important to us in moving this program forward. So thats the approach and right now im really comfortable that we are about where we need to be. We are. Yes. Thank you all very much. Live coverage of the news briefing at the pentagon.
