🇬🇷Greece builds pipeline to transport natural gas from Caspian Sea l Al Jazeera English

Greece is known for its history and climate, but not for oil and gas.
That may be about to change with a new pipeline being completed across the north of the country that will transport natural gas from the Caspian Sea to Western Europe.
It's part of a European Union policy to move away from dependence on Russian gas after shipments were stopped for two weeks during the 2009 Ukraine crisis, causing shortages in southeastern Europe.
Al Jazeera's John Psaropoulos reports.

1:04 You didn't mention Ukraine was stealing the gas and owed Russia 3 billions just for gas at the time.

Just remember folks, energy weapons only work as long as your customers allow it. US is energy independent and starting to net export oil and LNG. Saudi Arabia may be able to raise prices by not selling but they can't make a true shortage.

No pipeline can be built underneath med sea as it is vert vert expensive not economicsl n it can only go via turkey. Turkey will never allow its med reserved tobe piped thru greece or cyprus. This is pipe dream.

Bringing Israeli and Cypriot gas ? Dafuq?? You mean Turkish gas ??

[peeboy]

you will always need Russia or Africa to supply u with resources, God knew that you need us more than we need u

[MrKINGERRARD]

Greece needs to get permission off turkey to get that gas out and i dont think Turkey will let greece pull gas out grom there.

[djyoungturk]

Where did Greece get the money to build this I thought they were poor nation.
