Alan Armstrong on Energy and Geopolitical Competition
Alan Armstrong · U.S. Senate, Oklahoma ·
Prepared remarks for his inaugural Senate floor speech
“The defining geopolitical contests of this century will be won by the nations that can deploy their resources, not just those that possess them. America has the energy, the capital, and the technology to lead. The only remaining question is whether we have the political will to build the infrastructure necessary to turn those advantages into sustained global leadership.”
