President Trump may be sending mixed messages in an energy plan his White House published Friday that said he wants to achieve energy independence by ending oil imports from countries hostile to the United States, while at the same time cooperating with countries in the Persian Gulf to develop a “positive energy relationship” as part of a broader anti-terror strategy.

Trump’s energy plan isn’t specific about which countries his administration will seek energy independence from, except to say all members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, which would include several Gulf nations such as Saudi Arabia and even Iran. It would also seek energy independence from “any nations hostile to our interests.”
