The scenario of a pipeline from the offshore natural gas fields of Aphrodite to Cyprus and then onshore to Turkey is not as Utopian as it might seem, Sir Michael Leigh of the German Marshall Fund told the Cyprus Weekly. But it is premature today to take a front position on that, added the visiting senior advisor at the Washington DC based public policy think tank and a former European Commission director for enlargement.
"It would be in some respects less expensive, require less initial investment than for example the idea of building a 350 kilometre pipeline from the fields to Egypt," Leigh said.
