Japan, the world’s top importer of liquefied natural gas, will be
pushing G-7 nations this weekend to endorse LNG’s long-term future. That
plan has alarmed environmentalists and has put the Biden administration
in another difficult spot as it attempts to balance the fossil fuel
industry, environmental groups and a key Pacific ally. POLITICO’s Zack
Colman breaks down the details of Japan’s LNG push and how the US is
responding. Plus, Progressive Democrats are urging the Biden
administration to suspend Willow oil project permits.
