When we think of Palestine, don’t let’s forget ENI
From the Instagram profile of the Young Palestinians in Italy:
In the 2000s the discovery of large natural gas deposits in the eastern Mediterranean area has allowed the zionist entity to reduce energy dependence from abroad and to become an exporter. The most important deposit, Leviathan, is located less than 200 kilometres from the coast of Palestine and Israel hopes that others will be found to increase the reserve and increment exportation to Europe, which since the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war is looking for new energy sources. In this optic, on October 29th the minister of Israeli Energy, Israel Katz declared he has granted 12 licences to six companies for the exploration of natural gas off the Mediterranean coast to create more competition and diversify suppliers.
The licences will initially be for three years’ duration with the possibility of extending them to seven. Among the societies to which the licences have been assigned is the Italian Eni that will guide explorations to the west of the Leviathan deposit. A spokesperson for Eni has declared that the contract contest was launched in December and that the Italian group presented its offer in July. Already in March 2023 during Netanyahu’s visit to Rome, the Israeli prime minister confirmed the desire to “accelerate the exportation of gas to Europe through Italy”.
The Italian state, which is the main ENI shareholder, therefore yet again confirms itself accomplice of Israeli colonialism.
LET’S BOYCOTT ENI!
LET’S BLOCK THE GENOCIDE!
