特朗普政府与德国能源公司RWE达成12亿美元和解协议,以终止其在纽约、加州和路易斯安那州的海上风电项目租约 1。该协议使此类和解的总支出接近40亿美元 1。
RWE将把9亿美元用于从Stonespeak购买路易斯安那州一处液化天然气项目的股份 1。Stonespeak由澳大利亚亿万富翁迈克尔·多雷尔(Michael Dorrell)领导,他是特朗普的邻居,在佛罗里达州Mar-a-Lago附近拥有房产,并在2024年特朗普当选后向Trump Vance Inaugural Committee捐款100万美元 1。这引发民主党议员对利益冲突和腐败的质疑,加州民主党众议员贾里德·哈夫曼(Jared Huffman)称该和解是“对纳税人资金的疯狂浪费”并带有“腐败的恶臭” 1。
白宫发言人泰勒·罗杰斯(Taylor Rogers)否认存在利益冲突,称相关报道是出于政治目的的抹黑 1。
The Trump administration has agreed to pay $1.2 billion to German energy company RWE to terminate its offshore wind leases in New York, California, and Louisiana 1. Under the agreement, RWE will allocate $900 million of this settlement to acquire a stake in a Louisiana liquefied natural gas project from Stonespeak 1. This deal brings the total spending on such settlements to nearly $4 billion 1.
The transaction has prompted Democratic lawmakers to raise questions about conflicts of interest and corruption, as Stonespeak is led by Australian billionaire Michael Dorrell 1. Dorrell owns property near Mar-a-Lago in Florida and donated $1 million to the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee following Trump's election in 2024 1. California Democratic Representative Jared Huffman criticized the deal, describing the settlement as "a crazy waste of taxpayer money" that carries "the stench of corruption" 1.
In response, White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers denied any conflict of interest, dismissing the reports as politically motivated smears 1.
