Secretary General Osama Mobarez joined global energy leaders at the Atlantic Council Global Energy Forum, participating in a high-level panel discussion on “Energy Security Amid Shifting Geopolitics.” The timely session brought together influential voices to address the complex challenges and opportunities reshaping the global energy landscape.

During the panel, SG Mobarez underscored the strategic importance of the East Mediterranean in strengthening global energy security, especially in light of ongoing geopolitical transformations. He reiterated the role of natural gas not only as a reliable energy source but also as a critical enabler of the energy transition—bridging current needs with future sustainability goals.

Key Messages from SG Mobarez:

• The East Med region is central to Europe’s energy diversification and global supply resilience.
• Natural gas remains a cornerstone of both energy security and decarbonization efforts.
• The East Mediterranean Gas Forum (EMGF) is a vital platform for energy diplomacy, dialogue, and coordinated action.
• Diversification of energy sources and routes strengthens stability by reducing dependency and boosting resilience.

As the world navigates an increasingly complex energy environment, the EMGF continues to champion regional cooperation, resilience, and sustainable development.

The participation of SG Mobarez at this global forum further reinforces EMGF’s commitment to playing a constructive and proactive role in international energy diplomacy, ensuring that the East Med remains a key contributor to global energy stability.
