This episode of The IR thinker examines the geopolitics of East Mediterranean gas with Alexander Kislov, from the impact of the Abraham Accords on regional energy cooperation to the non-development of Cypriot reserves, Israeli–Turkish projects and Egypt’s balancing act between domestic needs and export commitments. The discussion also considers the role of major international energy companies, security challenges around offshore fields, and how the EU’s green transition and changing gas demand may reshape the future of Mediterranean pipelines.
