I absolutely love that the tyrannical bullying by the US is going to result in a globally-visible solar win.

That being said, now I worry that this administration will simply bomb them from existence to keep it from happening.

At what point will the USA admit their embargo was and is a huge fuck-up and an embarrassment? It's become a symbol of how full of crap we are. Has it been fifty years of this?

p.s. I looked it up because I'm dumb, it's been SIXTY-SIX YEARS. It's even older than me.

All the USA had to do for a fantastic ally by now is stop being an asshole. We could at least return the illegally seized Guantanamo Bay, which is kept just to insult them, really.

Putin & Trump will be sited as being responsible for the push, by the World, for more solar and electric energies. These oil dinosaurs are forcing people to choose green alternatives just to exist. Which is exactly what they both never wanted. hahahahaha

So that "drill baby drill" didn't just backfire, it backfired spectacularly yo the point where I'm thinking that we still might have a chance to stop climate change. Thanks Cheetos!

Poor US always on the wrong side recently, and with such good intentions too.

Okay so let me go over this again as I have an idea...

Nation that's struggling with dependency on petroleum and unreliable supply chain turns to renewable energy. The solar energy is clean, reliable, requires little maintenance, and is helping that country become less reliant on foreign petroleum.

If that works for Cuba, a tiny nation with few resources, perhaps it would work in other more wealthy nations also. Perhaps if a nation were, say, reliant on petroleum to the point that they start multiple multinational wars to ensure their own access to oil, costing literally $trillions, it might be cheaper to put some or all of that money into renewable energy. Presumably China will sell their solar panels to whoever's buying, yes? So why wouldn't a larger, more developed country purchase them in great quantity so spending $trillions on military actions in the Middle East would no longer be necessary?
If a country like this has some of their own domestic oil production, wouldn't it be a desirable future to just walk away from the Middle East entirely, let the oil assholes kill each other without our involvement, and run the country for a few decades on sunshine? Use that money to buy solar panels literally by the boatload / container-ship-load (or buy the tech and manufacture them ourselves), and then national security is improved through removing foreign dependencies?

Or is this just crazy talk?

Who is making solar panels?

The evil commies win again. Thanks Obama, you're still ruining America years later.

Seems like China recognized a pattern about nations that invest heavily in the poorer parts of the world.

Funny how the anti-green energy USA is expediting the adoption of renewables around the world due to their moronic laws, policies and wars.

Can't wait to see them left behind in the past with all that oil they can't get enough of, when nobody will need it anymore in the rest of the world.

We NEED to Cumpete with CHYNA! Which is Why we're doing EVERYTHING to Force OTHER COUNTRIES to do Bizness with CHYNA!
