Israel and Egypt Sign Gas Export Deal as Europe Seeks Russia Alternative
(Washington Post) Shira Rubin - Israel, Egypt, and the EU signed on Wednesday a trilateral natural gas deal in Cairo as Europe scrambles to replace the Russian supplies it has relied on for decades. The deal will enable Israel to send its natural gas through already existing pipelines to Egyptian ports, where it can be liquefied and pressurized and then exported to Europe. "This will contribute to our energy security," Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission president, tweeted on Wednesday.
