Exxon Held Secret Talks About Going Back to Russia

“After huddling with President Trump in Alaska, President Vladimir Putin told reporters Russia and the U.S. could do more business together—for example, between their Pacific coastlines,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

Said Trump: “We look forward to dealing.”

“What the two leaders didn’t say: Behind closed doors, their countries’ biggest energy companies had already sketched out a road map to going back into business, pumping oil-and-gas fields off Russia’s far-east coast.”
