Energy Secretary Says Russian Gas Sales to China Would Not Harm US

U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said on Friday he is not worried that Russia’s sale of gas to China would affect U.S. oil and gas producers.

Earlier this week, Russia and China gave their blessing to a gas pipeline called Power of Siberia 2, underscoring Chinese President Xi Jinping’s disregard for Western demands that he row back from a deepening partnership with Moscow.
