Because Egypt is electrified against Turkey

Al-Sisi wants to make Egypt both a military and an economic power. The point of Giuseppe Gagliano

A memorandum of understanding was signed on 16 October to put in place an electricity infrastructure between the Cypriot energy minister and his Egyptian counterpart.

It is evident that a memorandum of this nature not only makes the synergy between the two countries increasingly solid, but above all allows autonomy in relation to energy supply.

THE CABLE BETWEEN GREECE AND EGYPT

Precisely in a similar context, on October 14, Greece and Egypt signed an agreement for the construction of a submarine cable that would improve the connections between North Africa and Europe and which will therefore serve to improve the security of supply in the regional context. .

THE EURO-ASIA INTERCONNECTOR

However, this second project must be inserted in a broader context which is that of the agreement between Greece, Cyprus and Israel in relation to the need to build the Euro-Asia Interconnector , the longest and deepest submarine power cable in the world that crosses the Mediterranean. , for a cost of approximately 900 million dollars.

THE REACTION OF THE PALESTINIAN GROUPS

However, this project has already caused very harsh reactions from Palestinian organizations who see in this project a further attempt by Israel to weaken Palestinian political autonomy.

WHAT DOES EGYPT WANT?

In any case, these two agreements signed by Egypt demonstrate the will of the Egyptian president to make Egypt a power both economically and militarily, also in terms of anti-Turkish containment.
