A model of energy sovereignty
Christa Case Bryant
Editor
Good morning. Amid broader negotiations this weekend to end regional war in the Middle East, the US and Iran were unable to agree on whether the Strait of Hormuz was reopened or not, a key priority for stabilizing global energy prices.
Today we look at a country that decided to shift away from oil long before the closure of this chokepoint caused some to rethink dependence on fossil fuels. Uruguay now derives up to 98% of its electricity supply from renewables, and exports surplus energy to its neighbors.
We also have a story about how three far-left congressional candidates backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani could reshape Democratic Party positions on a range of issues. And we聽look at Team USA winning聽two first-round World Cup games for the first time since 1930, and advancing to the knockout round.聽
