SUMMARY:Leverage or Liability: The Intersections of U.S. LNG and International Security
DESCRIPTION:Over the past decade\, U.S. liquified natural gas (LNG) exports have improved global energy security and reduced energy dependence on risky oil and gas suppliers in Russia and the Middle East. LNG offers the United States a powerful tool to fortify alliances and gain leverage over adversaries\, but it also carries serious strategic risks and faces declining long-term demand from critical buyers. As conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East persist and tensions rise in the Indo-Pacific\, join the American Security Project on February 25 at 10:00 am EST for a discussion on evolving opportunities and challenges at the intersections of U.S. LNG and international security. \n\nRegister Now \nSpeakers: \nBG Steven Anderson\, USA (Ret.)\, Consensus for American Security\, American Security Project \nBrigadier General Steve Anderson\, USA (Ret.)\, currently serves as vice president of global support services at Bodwé Professional Services Group and as a member of the board of directors of Vote Vets.
