The U.S. is set to create a new $1 billion fund for energy projects in Europe and Eurasia to free countries like Ukraine from Russian energy dependence.

Workers prepare a metal pipeline aboard the Solitaire ship to be installed in the Finnish Gulf, 125 miles west of St. Petersburg, on Sept. 20, 2010.

"Trump has made us a literal laughingstock in Europe. They get together with the cameras running, and they laugh at him, and they laugh at us. Of course Congress is going to try to do whatever we can to change that," he added. Sen. Chris Murphy speaks to journalists with joint a press conference after a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, outside the Presidential Office in Kiev, Ukraine, Sept. 5, 2019.

But Murphy still expressed concern that the president -- who has pushed for the U.S. to be softer on Russia than even his own administration’s actions and who has scorn for the kind of green technology promoted by the bill -- will stand in the way.

How about putting that money in the U.S.?

That doesn't sound like something a Putin ally would do.

This is the world shaping crap that drives working folks crazy. With all of the homelessness, insecure borders, health care, and vet care issues we have- 1B would go a long way to help address them! How about shore up SS first?

Such...BS.... I’m sick of our tax dollars going to fund foreign industry. Our children are hungry and our vets are homeless....AmericaFirst

Shiba Inu riding a turtle. Your welcome.

Waiting for Trump to oppose this

Economic War

Solar and wind. Let's go sustainable. It's Europe, they'll love it.

Oh wait, are you sure this could be true during this administration?! How could it be?!

Good thing President Trump, unlike Hussein 0bama, gave Ukraine military weapons so it could help free itself from Russian energy dependence.

How about a fond to free countries from nepotism?

But wait... I thought we were beholden to Russia? Wasn't that what you told us the last two years?

Definitely add this to article of impeachment just another example of Trump being a *checks notes* Russian puppet.....LiberalsoutwittedbyHouseplants
