Viewing The Important Interplay Of Foreign Policy, Energy Markets

O'Sullivan said that looking at geopolitical events through a foreign policy lens or an energy lens alone can lead to differing outcomes. "But what if I had been wearing my energy lens at the time? "Had I gone into that meeting with an energy lens, I might have prepared Secretary Rice differently for that meeting."But that was the past. "Now, you can only make that argument if you're not wearing a market lens.
