Only by combining their forces will Israel and Cyprus be able to make a significant dent in the global natural gas economy, the Cypriot energy minister stressed on Tuesday.
We feel that through a close collaboration with Israel we will be able to be a major player in the world energy market, something that for each country individually might be too hard to achieve, said Energy, Commerce, Industry and Tourism Minister Yiorgos Lakkotrypis.
Lakkotrypis was addressing a group of Israeli and Cypriot business leaders and government officials at a seminar entitled Cyprus: An International and Professional Center, held in Tel Aviv on Tuesday afternoon and hosted by the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Cyprus Energy, Commerce, Industry and Tourism Ministry, in association with the Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce.
While the participants from approximately 100 Israeli companies and 30 Cypriot firms ranged in fields from milk to gas, the focus of leaders from both countries remained largely on the Mediterranean natural resource that each of the nations has come to enjoy.
The amounts of gas discovered in each country respectively might be considered small individually, but, by working together, Israel and Cyprus have the capability to create the third pillar of energy routes in the world, according to Lakkotrypis.

Likely they could reduce Turkey's portion of control and share of the fields. And possibly Cyprus.
Bump!
Israel and gas fields mentioned in the end times if I am correct?
I suspect Israel will do just fine, and Cyprus will not even work at it. Cyprus wants a free ride on the jews backs, and will be glad to claim half the profit. It is nice of Israel to want to work with them though.
Thanks haffast.
