Title Proper | Can Iran reduce EU dependence on Russian gas? |
Language | ENG |
Author | Tichy, Lukas |
Summary / Abstract (Note) | According to BP statistics, Iran has the world's largest reserves of natural gas and its fourth-largest reserves of oil. Its strategic geographic position makes it capable of supplying these resources to Europe, its Middle Eastern neighbors, and South and East Asian countries.1 Yet, the difficult geopolitical situation around its nuclear program and the poor management of its energy industry have prevented it from becoming a gas exporter to the European Union (EU). |
