In the Energy News Beat – Conversation in Energy with Stuart Turley, talks with George McMillan dives into the geopolitical strategies influencing energy markets, highlighting how natural gas pipelines, trade routes, and economic policies are used to control global power dynamics. George McMillan explains the integration of geopolitical modeling with economic development theories, emphasizing the deindustrialization of Germany due to the loss of Russian natural gas and its broader implications for the EU and global economies. The discussion also critiques the inefficiency of siloed university systems and government agencies compared to the private sector's streamlined analytical models. Recommendations include adopting integrated strategies for better policy-making and competitive positioning in global markets.Connect and follow George on his LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-mcmillan-5665b015/Honestly, the new Trump administration does not have all of the information about the geopolitical landscape to make accurate decisions. George is a one-of-a-kind analyst who has the missing theories and boots-on-the-ground experience. If I were an energy executive looking to put in pipelines, import, or export facilities, I would contract with George to do an assessment for the project. If I was in the Trump administration looking at the potential World War III issues, I would hire him to find out why other administrations made some decisions. And if I was in charge of the Military colleges, I would hire him to teach the next generation of military leaders. The left has removed much of the material George has assembled, and it is nowhere to be found in the next generation of leaders. Thank you for your time, George!
