Diplomatic tug-of-war over the cable: The role of France and the United States
Published
The Greek newspaper Kathimerini reports on intense diplomatic behind-the-scenes activity surrounding the cable, a major energy project of interest to Greece. According to the report, diplomats are trying to adjust the wording France used in its communications with other countries.
The key issue is the words chosen in official texts. In diplomacy, a small change in wording can signal a different position a country holds on a project. For this reason, discussions about words are often very important and do not take place easily.
The article refers in particular to the role of France and the United States of America in the discussions. However, the newspaper does not provide full details about each side's positions or about the timeline of the consultations. For this reason, readers will need to wait for more information from future reports.
Finally, the development of the issue will be important for the energy policy of the region. We will need to follow whether the talks lead to a common position or to new disagreements.
