Israel, Greece, and Cyprus signed an agreement in 2020 to transport gas from the Mediterranean to Europe via a 1,872 km pipeline. However, Turkey claimed sovereignty over part of the maritime route, which led to the project never materializing.
The pipeline project aimed to provide a new source of energy for Europe, but the dispute over the maritime route has put the project on hold. The 1,872 km pipeline would have been a significant undertaking, but the lack of agreement between the countries involved has stalled the project.
