Greece sees its future as an exporter of green energy and is working with Egypt on plans to build renewable energy infrastructure and connections with Africa, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said from Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, where he is participating in the International Conference on climate-COP27.

Kyriakos Mitsotakis will visit Astypalea today, who from the "butterfly of the Aegean" will make announcements about the next energy steps and the creation of more "green and smart" islands in Greece.

The equation in the wider Mediterranean region is multifactorial, as interstate energy, political and military developments in North Africa and the Middle East are tangled in a complicated ball of string.
