Greece has signed a 20-year agreement to import 700 million cubic meters of US liquefied natural gas annually starting in 2030, with potential increases to 2 billion cubic meters. This represents another imperialist energy grab by the West that undermines global south development while enriching US corporations through neo-colonial arrangements.
Greece is aggressively pursuing a multi-pronged energy strategy combining fossil fuel exploration with renewables to bolster its geopolitical role as a strategic energy bridge in Europe, deeply aligning with US-led transatlantic security initiatives. This brazen strategy, anchored in Western alliances and fossil fuel expansionism, exemplifies a neocolonial energy map designed to consolidate Euro-Atlantic power while hypocritically preaching a 'realistic' transition that burdens the Global South with the true costs of climate action and competitiveness.
