US President Barack Obama is due to meet BP executives after vowing to make the oil company pay for the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
In his first TV address to the nation as president, Mr Obama said he would tell BP’s chairman the firm must set up a fund to compensate those affected.
Oil has been leaking into the Gulf since a drilling rig leased by BP blew up on 20 April, killing 11 workers.
BP has been accused of failing to follow proper procedures.
As oil has washed ashore in Gulf coast states, affecting businesses and wildlife, the rhetoric from US politicians has become increasingly bitter and the firm’s share price has tumbled, with billions of dollars being wiped off its value.
Mr Obama invited BP chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg to the White House meeting. The Associated Press news agency quotes BP as saying that group chief executive Tony Hayward, BP America president Lamar McKay and managing director Robert Dudley will accompany Mr Svanberg.
It will be Mr Obama’s first face-to-face meeting with them since the oil leak began.
“I will meet with the chairman of BP and inform him that he is to set aside whatever resources are required to compensate the workers and business owners who have been harmed as a result of his company’s recklessness,” Mr Obama said in his address from the White House’s Oval Office.
“And this fund will not be controlled by BP. In order to ensure that all legitimate claims are paid out in a fair and timely manner, the account must and will be administered by an independent third party.”
In response to the speech, BP said in a statement that it shared Mr Obama’s goal of cleaning up the oil spill and helping the people affected by it. Read the rest of this entry »
