Trump says Taiwan will purchase 30% of natural gas produced by Alaska pipeline

President Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told a rally crowd in Alaska on Tuesday night that Taiwan has committed to investing in and purchasing 30% of the natural gas produced at a pipeline project in the state.

The president’s comments came during a campaign speech supporting Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) and other down-ballot Republicans in Wasilla. Trump specifically noted that Sullivan has been working with the White House to drive foreign investments into the Alaska liquified natural gas pipeline “and all the other projects that will come with it.”
