Latin America represents the largest energy resource base outside of the Middle East. The region’s vast energy resources — including significant crude oil and natural gas resources — and its unique political landscape make it a significant player that could shift the geopolitical weight from the East to the West.
This live recording of our Baker Briefing podcast featured fellows Mark Jones and Francisco Monaldi.
Members of the Baker Roundtable were invited to an exclusive reception prior to the live recording, which was free and open to the public.
