OREANDA-NEWS  The American leadership intends to work closely with Europe, helping it diversify energy resources and transition to clean energy in the future, US President Joe Biden said.

At a joint press conference with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron following the meeting at the White House, Biden stressed that the United States will work in close partnership with the European Union. "The United States is helping Europe to diversify its energy resources and abandon Russian natural gas in the near future," he stressed. In his opinion, this will accelerate the transition to environmentally friendly energy sources.

Earlier, US Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources Jeffrey Pyatt said that the United States supplies 70 percent of all exported American liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Europe. According to him, Washington is mobilizing its LNG export resources to meet the needs of Europe.

The Wall Street Journal wrote that the US economy is benefiting the most from the energy crisis in Europe.
