On behalf of HE Haitham Al Ghais, OPEC Secretary General, Mr. Leonardo Sempértegui, OPEC’s General Legal Counsel, delivered the opening speech at the Sixth Annual Legal Workshop, highlighting the importance of regulatory stability and clarity in helping facilitate the much-needed energy investments and ensuring that realistic and feasible energy pathways are chosen over ideological ones.
“Policymakers and stakeholders need to work together to ensure a long-term investment-friendly climate, with sufficient finance available,” Mr. Sempértegui said, noting that “this can be achieved with effective, realistic regulations and contractual agreements that do not discriminate against any energy source and help pave the way for a future energy landscape that is fairer and more inclusive.”
“Regulations and contractual arrangements should, for instance, provide support for decarbonization technologies on an equal footing to renewable energy projects, including cofinancing, tax breaks and subsidies,” he added.
After tonight's horrific terrorist attack in Vienna, Austria, Jill and I are keeping the victims and their families in our prayers. We must all stand united against hate and violence.
Nous, Français, partageons le choc et la peine du peuple autrichien frappé ce soir par un attentat au cœur de sa capitale, Vienne. Après la France, c’est un pays ami qui est attaqué. C’est notre Europe. Nos ennemis doivent savoir à qui ils ont affaire. Nous ne céderons rien.
Our prayers are with the people of Vienna after yet another vile act of terrorism in Europe. These evil attacks against innocent people must stop. The U.S. stands with Austria, France, and all of Europe in the fight against terrorists, including radical Islamic terrorists.
I am shocked and saddened by the brutal attack that took place in Vienna. My thoughts are with the families of the victims and the Austrian people.
Europe stands in full solidarity with Austria. We are stronger than hatred and terror.
