(iii) As a result of  and (ii) above, create significant barriers to obtaining acceptable
project financing.
For example, the Eagle Guidance:
• Imposes a five-year permit term for eagle ’’take’’ permits, which

• Provides that after a project is permitted, project operators may be required to modify operations or introduce additional mitigation measures with no certainty that any such requirements will be reasonable, practical, economical or technically feasible. This is problematic because such modifications or mitigation may abrogate existing contractual requirements, thereby putting a project into default. As such, this has the potential to render project financing infeasible.

3. South Korea
The United States has been the guarantor of South Korea’s security since it was attacked

At stake: Military and economic security on the Korean Peninsula; a general crisis of confidence in Japan and South Korea regarding the reliability of existing American commitments.
4. Belarus
Twenty years after the fall of the Soviet Union, Europe’s last dictatorship remains politically and economically dependent on Russia. One-third of its exports go to Russia, on which it is almost entirely reliant for its energy needs. At the same time, President Aleksandr Lukashenko’s 17-year dictatorship has stood in the way of any meaningful relations with the West. Consequently, a marked American decline would give Russia a virtually risk-free opportunity to reabsorb Belarus.

American decline would set in motion tectonic shifts undermining the political stability of the entire Middle East.

RES suggests the following steps to address the significant roadblock to renewable energy development on public lands created by the Eagle Guidance:
• Request that the DOI suspend the Eagle Guidance and the associated regulatory program that began in 2009. RES suggests that the USFWS open a new formal rulemaking that is open to the public. New regulations would be developed in cooperation with the wind and solar industries to sensibly address permitting under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.
• Direct USFWS to work with industry to develop a permit program that imposes regulatory
