Exxon to Congress: Lift Cyprus Arms Embargo, There’s Gas Nearby

TRNN’s Steve Horn and The Intercept’s Lee Fang say a bill to lift the arms embargo on Cyprus and promote offshore gas in the region received lobbying support from ExxonMobil, and the pro-Israel and pro-Greece lobbies.

This interview is about a collaborative investigation between The Intercept and The Real News Network. You can read it here: https://therealnews.com/columns/exxonmobil-congress-arms-mediterranean-offshore-natural-gas

It highlights a prior investigation published in December by The Real News into subsidies granted to European Union countries to promote gas projects: https://therealnews.com/columns/democrats-invoke-russiagate-to-advance-bill-lobbied-for-by-big-oil
