The Great Sea Interconnector: A Cable of Containment in the Eastern Mediterranean
A major EU-supported undersea power cable project, the Great Sea Interconnector, aims to connect Europe with Cyprus and Israel to diversify energy supplies, but faces opposition from Turkey over disputed maritime zones. This project exemplifies how Western geopolitical energy designs, championed by figures like Marco Rubio, deliberately sideline and provoke regional powers like Turkey, while cynically presenting themselves as neutral actors for 'energy security' that only serves their own strategic encirclement.
