Regarding concerns about the potential impact of these projects on natural resources and the environment, Mickoski said that major companies would not invest in them if they posed a risk.
He cited the development of artificial intelligence and data centers as an example, asking what the gross domestic product of the United States would be today without these sectors. Mickoski mentioned NVIDIA, Amazon, SpaceX and OpenAI as global multinational companies whose brands are worth trillions, thousands of billions, and stressed that they would not have been created if they harmed citizens’ quality of life.
The prime minister added that the government would remain fully committed to implementing this strategy. According to him, the projects also envisage the construction of gas-fired power stations, which will produce the electricity that will subsequently be used by the data centers.
