Ενεργειακή Ασφάλεια Ανατολής-Δύσης: Η Περίπτωση της Ελλάδος ως Διαμετακομιστικού Κέντρου και Παραγωγού Χώρας
Translated title:
Energy Security East-West: The Case of Greece as an Energy Hub and Producer Country
Summary:
The depletion of the natural energy sources of the West, especially of Europe, requires the search for new sources as well as supply routes. Until now, the inexhaustible sources of the East have been a reliable alternative. However, the emergence of strong reactive forces in the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean region, under the guidance and support of strong gov-ernmental and non-governmental entities, raised this perspective in question.
As a result of the above, the region emerged to be a field of confrontation of forces wishing to prevail and emerge as regional ones.
In this international fluid and constantly changing geopolitical environment, Greece is called upon to acquire a central role in Europe's effort to ensure its uninterrupted energy supply from the sources of the East, taking advantage, at the same time, of existing and imminent discover-ies in the Levantine Basin region and, more generally, the Eastern Mediterranean.
Greece, because it has to face the competition in the above area as well as the problems that raised from the pursuit mainly of the revisionist forces, should anticipate the distribution of power and choose the appropriate geostrategy in order to meet the challenge.
