As much as the government delays it, and the opposition is indifferent, due to “incorrect timing”, the dynamics of the Greek EEZ becomes greater.
Not because there is a specific reason at a political level, but simply because the developments in regards to the hydrocarbons are so enormous, both as far as the research and the discoveries are concerned, that everyone is as a result obliged to admit the value of the Eastern Mediterranean, the importance of the Herodotus Basin and the strategic reserves which have already been found within the Tamar and Aphrodite reserves, in addition to the giant Leviathan, and hypergigantic Zohr reserves.
Of course we are aware that we already have reserves at the Ionian Sea as well, with the Achilles and Pyrrhus reserves, both of which are within the Greek EEZ.
However, the great strategic reserves are located south of Crete and in the Herodotus Basin.
We have indeed written about the characteristics of the Minos reserve which is located south of Crete.
We will gradually write about Daedalus, or even about Minos’s four sons and four daughters as well, up until political decisions are finally taken.
We’ll continue however, so that there will not be absolutely any excuse of unawareness, for those knowledgeable about the issue, those competent, and the politicians, up untill finally a government is found which would really want to unburden our homeland of the crisis, and to invest in these new energean data, with the appropriate strategy, in order to alter our geopolitical power at a European level.
