It is ironic that in 2026, it is the Chinese, with inexpensive renewable tech, that are offering self-determination and energy security to countries. Once you make electricity with domestically sited renewables, you will be free from the Petrostate model and indifferent to all the political shenanigans in the Middle East. The US, the leading supplier of fossil fuels, is suffering along with everyone else. ‘Drill, baby, drill” has done nothing to create energy security.
