智通财经2026/10/06 02:36(1) Although South Korea stated that its participation in the Alaska natural gas project depends on the project’s commercial viability, a move that prompted U.S. President Trump to threaten trade retaliation, U.S. Vice President Vance said the project will proceed. (2) On Monday, Vance said: “I believe this will definitely be achieved. Of course, some details still need to be finalized, and the South Korean side has already communicated regarding this.” (3) He added: “As long as there is market demand for these resources, and there is indeed strong demand for U.S. natural gas, I believe we will be able to complete this project.”
