The new liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal station in the city of Alexandroupolis “is a milestone in Europe’s energy development,” noted European Council President Charles Michel on Tuesday, ANA reports.
Speaking at the inauguration of the northeastern Greek city’s new natural gas Floating Storage & Regasification Unit (FSRU), the European official added that this project “is very positive for our joint political projects, as it will help us to diversify our natural gas sources, to strengthen our energy infrastructure, and we will therefore reduce our dependence on Russian gas, making us stronger, more independent.”
Michel, who spoke alongside the attending state leaders of Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, and North Macedonia, stressed that this “geopolitical initiative reflects what we need to do from now on, as it will supply natural gas to Greece, Bulgaria, and North Macedonia.”
