Algeria: President offers to supply EU with electricity
Despite spooking western elites just recently when it announced a 23 bn dollar military spending plan – mainly from Russia – Algeria is looking more like an ally of Europe than ever before.
Algeria is offering to Europe its spare electricity capacity, and it is planning a 270 km undersea pipe towards Italy, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune told reporters in an interview on December 22, reported by Reuters.
Algeria is also pushing to double its gas exports to reach 100 billion cubic metres per year versus 56 billion cubic metres per year in 2022, Tebboune added.
