Trump's revival of Keystone XL pipeline

Reports have confirmed that U.S. President Donald Trump is seeking to revive the Keystone XL oil pipeline project, which aims to transport heavy Canadian oil to the United States, after it was halted in 2021 due to environmental and political objections. Trump reintroduced the project through social media, amid ongoing trade negotiations between Washington and Ottawa, highlighting the importance of the project, which was originally intended to transport about 830,000 barrels per day and heavily reliant on Canadian oil destined for the American market. Reviving Keystone XL by Trump serves as a competitive tactic in negotiations, especially since the project is a major component of U.S. energy supplies, despite facing opposition from environmental groups and Indigenous communities. The initiative is also viewed as a way to strengthen cooperation between the two countries, with a potential new project called "Prairie Connector" being considered to transport around 550,000 barrels per day, utilizing parts of the previous pipeline, with a future decision expected in 2027.
