Summary

The Trump administration said this week South Korea agreed to invest $54 billion in an Alaska LNG pipeline, part of a broader $200 billion investment announcement that also included nuclear power plants. South Korea disputed this, saying it agreed to invest only if the long-stalled project proves economically feasible, contesting the status of the negotiations described by U.S. officials.
