According to relevant reports, there is news from the UK that Burnham is considering approving new fossil fuel extraction projects at the North Sea Rosebank Oilfield and the Cambo Oilfield. However, as of now, Burnham himself has not confirmed this information. U.S. President Trump has responded positively to the matter, stating that from related reports, he has learned that Burnham may support a new round of oil and gas extraction in the North Sea, claiming that the people of Aberdeen, Scotland would "take to the streets in celebration." On Sunday, Trump posted on his own social platform, Truth Social, directly stating that Burnham has already made a clear statement to allow the related extraction. In his post, Trump wrote: "People in Aberdeen, Scotland are going to take to the streets and celebrate because the new Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, has announced the comprehensive development of North Sea oil, whose value is beyond measure!" As a long-time public supporter of fossil energy, President Trump also stated that expanding oil and gas extraction in the North Sea could transform the UK from "a nation deeply trapped in poverty and disaster into one of the richest countries in the world." At the same time, he criticized the wind power industry again, saying the UK should remove those wind turbines towering over Aberdeen, which he described as unsightly and disruptive to the city's landscape.
