Abstract
As a Euro-Mediterranean energy center for natural gas, Italy wants to strengthen its regional geo-economic power towards Africa, but also to be better than Greece, Spain and Turkey in the regional Mediterranean competition. Italy can exert direct influence in two areas in particular: the "elongated" Mediterranean (the Mediterranean basin and the African continent, which includes the steppe-savanna belt in North Africa between the dry Sahara in the north and the humid savannas in the south, the so-called Sahel) and the European union.
