Foreign Policy Council: Energy cooperation in the Eastern Mediterranean

Brussels, Belgium

Sofitel Brussels Europe
Pl. Jourdan 1
1040 Bruxelles

DIRECTIONS

Since the beginning of this century, the EU has increasingly viewed the gas resources in the eastern Mediterranean as having a great potential to reduce its dependency on Russian gas but also as an enabler of its economic growth. During this roundtable, we will discuss the state of play of current energy projects, including the challenges and opportunities for the EU and the region, and more importantly we will point out pragmatic solutions to make real use of these untapped resources.

We will be joined by MEPs, MPs of the region and experts - event by invitation only
