eKathimerini (24 November 2025)

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Monday that Greece’s latest energy initiatives will significantly enhance its geopolitical standing, as the country takes on a larger role in US-backed efforts to reshape Europe’s gas supply.

Mitsotakis briefed President Konstantinos Tasoulas on recent moves that place Greece at the center of regional energy developments, including an agreement enabling Ukraine to import US liquefied natural gas (LNG) through Greek infrastructure.

Greece last week became the first EU country to actively participate in Washington’s plan to replace Russian gas with American LNG. Under the deal, US shipments will be routed through Greece from next month until March 2026 via the “Vertical Corridor,” a newly activated network of pipelines, LNG terminals and storage facilities linking Greece with Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Ukraine and Moldova.
