I think Biden is doing great. As long as he appears environmental, he is free to do whatever contradictory acts abroad.

I just want Biden to play the anti-war, pro-environmental liberal. What he really does is unimportant.

Yessir.

Our PM is all in on The Great Reset.

An America first POTUS is something I will always support.

The article is a bit misleading.

The agreement was brokered under Trump. It was signed by US Envoy and Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar of the Taliban and Mike Pompeo as witness On 29 Feb 2020. The Biden admin are reviewing that deal due to an increase in terrorism by the Taliban.

TAPI project is from way back in 1995; The US Gov and US companies have always backed it. The Taliban were invited to negotiations with Unocal in Texas in 1997. Every President since Clinton has been involved with getting the Taliban onboard the project; it was heavilly featured in the 2019 and 2020 peace agreements.

The deal was re-signed in 2002 following the US led war in Afghanistan, construction of the Afghanistan section started in Feb 2018. The US has always backed it as the alternative is the Russia-Iranian-Pakistan pipeline. one of the key aims of the war in Afghanistan was to have it implemented to gain geopolitical power.

I guess you miss the central point of this, in that Biden is cancelling U.S. pipelines, fracking etc. because "Climate Change!", but supports an Asian pipeline because...why?

It is just like the Paris Climate Accord. The U.S. has to take drastic steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions right away, but China and India get a free pass until 2030?

Biden and the rest of the cabal are in favour of anything, for any reason, that decreases American strength and influence while increasing the strength and influence of China and globalists at large.

Surely you can see this.

Your "elected leaders" want to sell favors to get rich. That primarily includes selling out their own nation.

There is no government.

It's all a lie.

They said it was a return to normalcy. Looks like the Obama years right?

Oh yeah, it would complete double speak from him as usual if he eventually backs the pipeline and the article would have a point if he'd promoted it or brokered meetings and deals like the article alledges, but the US had no involvement in the meetings this month, they were organised by Qatar and Turkmenistan.

The only comment Biden has made on the issue is he's reviewing the US 2020 deal as the Taliban haven't severed ties with Al Queda or reduced violence as was agreed in 2020. Though I doubt he'd scrap it as he never spoke out against it during the Obama years.

I doubt he would scrap the pipeline as he hasn't fired the US envoy to Afghanistan yet and never spoke out against it in the Obama years but the central premise of the article is false.

As I said the TAPI pipeline is also meant to combat the Chinese geo-politics and the China-Turkemistan pipeline, that's been US policy since 1995 so it would be an odd pick of something that would decrease US influence and give more to China.

Gas in Hamilton Ontario Canada has gone from .88$ a litre to 1.16$ since Biden stole the election. Have fun with your gas prices. We’ll be at 1.50 by summer. China Joe can’t have North America do well

This one turns out to be false as the talks concluded wit Turkmenistan and the Taliban last week with no US involvement and the accusation of supporting brutal regimes was off as the US has done that around the world since WW2 (as has every empire and most western countries).

Biden has however promoted three different pipleines in Europe claiming its for energy security, takling climate change and building US-European relations which shows him cancellin the keystone pipelines was just lip service rather than coherrent policy.
