Through its Energy Minister, Russia announced the possibility of co-investing in the construction projects of logistics and gasification facilities in Morocco. Its ambitions were made public after the United States granted Morocco money to back its LNG plans.
Morocco is planning to invite bids for a $4.5 billion liquified natural gas (LNG) project in Jorf Lasfar. This step comes as the US Trade and Development Agency awarded a grant to Morocco’s Ministry of Energy to evaluate building an LNG import terminal and regasification facility.
The United States of America is backing Morocco's gas projects. Washington is willing to assist the Kingdom's plans to export liquified natural gas to Europe.
EPA’s chief Scott Pruitt resigned on Thursday, following allegations of self-dealing and wasteful spending. The official heading the USA's environmental protection agency has been criticized for visiting Morocco to promote liquefied gas imports in the Kingdom.
Fighting accusations, EPA’s chief Scott Pruitt told Interior-Environment Subcommittee Wednesday that his trip to Morocco was business-related.
Recent revelations show that Scott Pruitt’s visit to Morocco was arranged by an American lobbyist. The latter has signed later a $40.000 contract with the Moroccan Embassy in Washington.
