Summary

Donald Trump criticized the U.K.’s wind energy policies in a Truth Social post, urging them to “get rid of Windmills” while opposing the country’s windfall tax on North Sea oil and gas producers.

The tax aims to fund renewable energy projects as part of a transition away from fossil fuels.

Trump’s disdain for wind turbines, which he refers to as “windmills,” traces back to a long-standing dispute with the Scottish Parliament over a wind farm near his Aberdeen golf course.

His post also referenced U.S. firm APA Corp’s planned exit from the North Sea.
