Six Facts. One Future. Part II: East Med Energy Security: Challenges and Cooperation Prospects.

In the second webinar of the series we focus on energy security in the Eastern Mediterranean with Dr. Charles Ellinas.

In the second webinar of the series, we focus on energy security.

East Med is a strategic crossroads for global energy flows, serving as both a transit corridor and a potential supplier. But the region faces a sharp divide between energy exporters and importers, exposing countries to vulnerabilities. Wars in Ukraine and Iran have economic and energy security ramifications affecting all countries around the region. A direct consequence of the Iran war is that heavy dependence on fossil fuels has exposed users to disproportionate energy security and costs challenges. These are the issues, including latest developments and their ramifications, we plan to discuss during this webinar.

The discussion will take place on Thursday, April 2, 2026 at 5-6 pm (Nicosia time).

Please register by Wednesday, April 1, via office.cyprus@fes.de.

The Zoom link will be provided the day before the event.
