*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- The forthcoming EU Heads of State/Government Summit on 21-22 October 2021 in Brussels can Tackle Both Issues of Turkish WarShips Bullying against "East-Med" Pipeline to Europe, and of the, almost Simultaneous, Explosion of Energy Prices, because there is a structural Ling between these 2 Topical current Issues, Agreed a Top EU Official with a relevant "Eurofora"'s Question, at an Off the record Video-Press Briefing under condition of Anonymity, because of the sensitive character of such matters.

For a more Detailed Description of those Recent Incidents, on a Still On-going Obstruction by Turkey, which Affected, at the 1st Line on the spot, 5 EU Member Countries : Cyprus, Greece, Malta, Italy and France, almost at the Same Time that EU Parliament was holding a Long and "Hot" Public Debate on the Parallel "Explosion" of Gas a.o. Energy Prices, at its previous, October 1, Plenary Session in Strasbourg, see : http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/euenergycrisisasturkeybulliescyprus.html,  etc.

- "Angelo ! It's been a while... Don't make it Too Long, if you can."

 - "Eurofora" : "Dear Sir : 2 Questions, if you can :

- One, about the Energy Prices, which are in the (EU Summit's) Agenda, But there ia Also the Foreign Policy.

=> And, here, we have a very Topical Event : At the Same Moment, we have the (Energy) Prices' Explosion, and, at the Same Time, we have (even) European Energy, near EU Members Cyprus and Greece, as well as Close to Friendly Neighbouring Countries as Israel, Egypt, and others, who Wish to have a (Transport) Link with the EU, But were Hindered to do so, Brutaly, by Turkish WarShips and Threats.

>>> Do you think that there is Space in order to Examine Both these 2 Topical Issues Together ?  I.e. the Foreign Policy Issue and the Energy Prices ?

Because, If We (the EU) could use European Energy, Obviously, the Prices would be (much)Better..."

---------------------------

    -"On Energy and GeoPolitics : ", I.e. "1st Question : Energy and Foreign Affairs".

 - "As it stands, of Course, there is a Key Link between the 2".

 - "And I see the Discussions of Tomorrow extremely Focused on the External aspects".


- "Of course, Our Relation, as Europe, is that of a Major Importer of Gas".

 - "So, you CaN't have a Discussion on this, withOut Tackling the Geo-Politics always.", he Concluded positively.

-------------------------------------------

+ Meanwhile, Soon After the above-mentioned Turkey-provoked Incidents Against the EU's "East-Med" Gas Pipeline, a suibsequent Summit between Greece, Cyprus and Egypt's Leaders took place in Athens, Focusing, this time, on "Electrical" Energy Transport Links to the rest of Europe, (mutatis-mutandis, according to the Basic lines of a Similar Idea, Already proposed, Earlier since 2010-2011 in Nicosia, by the then Prime Minister of Israel).

Fillon invites EU to invent "New Horizons" behind Oil crisis

A pioneer Franco-German research project on GeoThermy, near Strasbourg, served as "Symbol" of EU's will to become Independent on Energy by developing innovative Technologies, while imported Oil prices threaten to provoke a World-wide crisis.

It's essential to demonstrate Europe's will to "invent New Horizons", by creating Environment-friendly, Independent and Renewable Energy sources, while price rises continue for Oil, a polluting old ressource with insufficient stocks, stressed French Prime Minister Francois Fillon, anouncing that this will be a focus during the forthcoming French EU Presidency (July - December 2008).

Fillon symbolically injected a 1st KWh produced by GeoThermy into Strasbourg's Electricity grid, during a special gathering of German and French officials at Soultz-under-Forests ("Soultz-sous-Forêts"), using a geothermal innovation which is "the most advanced in the World" :

The innovation uses Strasbourg's underground water richness to capture Heat, by injecting liquid among Rocks 5 km deep, where temperature is 200 c. Thus, it can be activated at any moment and location, even without natural warm water springs : A big advantage compared to old biothermal tools.

Engineers, Scientists and the Industry will have 2 Years to invent practical ways for this innovation to become productive and cost-efficient in real Economy, said Fillon.

115 Millions of Euros invested, 15 Research Labos, 430 Scientific Publications including 34 Doctoral PhD, and a systematic cooperation between French and German Governments and Public Agencies on Research, succeeded to prove that the new method works.

Already able to serve Electricity to a village with 1.500 inhabitants, the pioneer project intends to reach a capacity to serve 20.000 inhabitants before 2015, as part of a larger Plan to make all Renewable Energy Resources (together with Wind, Solar, etc) able to cover more than 23% of all Electricity needs before 2020.

- In fact, "behind the challenge" faced with the current Oil crisis, there "is a New Horizon that we can shape all together", by "creating New Tools for the Future", Fillon launched towards EU Member States.

Meanwhile, we should intensify Energy Savings, simplify Transports, and help the Poorest cope with growing Oil prices, until EU joins a World-wide lead into inventing reliable and sufficient Renewable Energy Sources, he added.

Many, technologic and other Challenges exist, but they can be overcome : F. ex. the new GeoThermic method tested at Shoultz since 1987, had provoked an Earthquake at a nearby site, close to Bale, by injecting big volumes of pressurized Water in underground broken Rocks near a Seismic Faultline in 2003. But the move was rectified later-on, by diminishing the amount and pressure of the water injected in underground rocks, so that no Earthquake is provoked.

More than 1 Billion Euros are invested by France on Scientific and Technologic Research about Sustainable Development until 2012, aiming to take a 10 years advance, there where innovation can become source of Growth, Competitivity and Jobs, which, according to some evaluations could reach more than 220.000 before 2020, Fillon observed.

During the forthcoming French EU Presidency, together with our German friends, we shall do all necessary efforts for Europe's World-wide lead against Global Warming, thanks to Energy tools able to ensure its Independence, Growth, and Citizens' well-being, he concluded.

The "Enhanced Geothermal System" (EGS) stems from pioneer research initiated by teams from France, Germany and Italy, joined also by Swiss, the U.K., and Sweden, even U.S. and Japan, since the 90ies.

In 1996, a European Economic Interest Group (GEIE) was founded, in order to exploit Electricity-produsing Heat from deep underground Rocks, including France's EDF and Germany's PfalzWerke.

In 2002, a Pilot scientific project started to be tested in Soultz-under-Forests, 50 kms north of Strasbourg.

Polls

2009 EU Elections were won by Parties against Technocracy and Turkey's controversial EU bid, while the 1999-2004 Majority Abstention trend decelerated. What should be done in 2009-2014 ?
