Seemingly unaffected by domestic corruption charges, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is radically redesigning the Eastern Mediterranean political sphere with a series of breakthrough deals.
Along with Cyprus and Greece, Israel’s EastMed subsea pipeline will carry natural gas to Europe and is planned to be completed by 2025. With Europe aiming towards creating actual energy diversification, the opportunity comes at a perfect time.
In addition to Europe, Israel’s greatest breakthrough comes from Egypt, a former blood rival of the Jewish state. As part of a $15 billion deal, Egypt will act as an energy re-export hub on Europe’s, where Israeli gas will be processed at Egyptian liquefied natural gas factories before being exported to Europe.
This coordinated effort at creating wealth and security, quite possibly a catalyst for further deals between states once considered irrevocably differed, stands in sharp contrast to the years of frequent conflicts and bloodshed between the two nations.
Despite the breakthroughs, Turkey has continued its regional jostling for power, increasing its presence in Libya, Cyprus, and the Mediterranean sea. According to the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon, Erdogan has even “ turned Turkey into a safe haven for Hamas terrorists and a financial center for funneling money to subsidize terror attacks.”
With both nations aiming to establish dominance in the region, a breaking point is imminent.
I think it is hilarious that the corruption that is the European union, the democrat party in the USA, the Saudi government, all of africa, all of south east Asia, and Russia would even think about calling Isreal corrupt. Its a little disingenuous dont you think?
Name a USA democrat party member who is not corrupt. Biden and obama bribed ukraine, pelosi sold influence to get jobs for her son, bidens whole e tended family is on the take, hillary / Bill the list is too long to write, michelle obama got high paying jobs due to her husband’s position, schiff lying to Congress by reading a fake transcript of a fake phone call and is being paid by soros (who’s son is married to Schiff’s duaghter), omar: adulatory, incest, illegal entry into the USA, campaign finance fruad. The list goes on and on. Yet somehow you want to point at isreal as a problem with corruption.
Dude when you point a figure elsewhere there are three figures pointing back at you. Yeah look in the mirror for your corruption
Wow! That pretty much sums it up doesnt it!
No wonder I dont vote democrat anymore
Actually I was hoping the article was going to say isreal was going to bomb the hell out of iran for the betterment of all mankind!
I’m a little disappointed. Someone should turn iran into a glass swimming pool with about six nice sized nukes
Hahaha !!!!
What Netanyahu , Danon and Gang forgot , is that this Gas they talk about is Stolen , Palestinian Resources , So donot Dance and Joy on dead Palestinian bodies , No one is free , Unless all of us Are Free.
Demolish settlements, release the Jailed Palestinian children, End Occupation, Peace on Earth .
Turkey is a puppet for Russia, treat them as such.
I totally agree!
Great. Now the U.S. can pull back all our subsidies given to Israel. Over $3.3 Billion in 2019 alone. $145 Billion since WWII.
