In a plan released last week, the EU said it will invest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/science-environment-61497315\">EUR 12 bn<\/a> in pipelines and LNG facilities to increase gas supplies from other producers such as Egypt and Israel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt is on board:<\/strong> \u201cWe have ambitious plans to coordinate with neighboring eastern Mediterranean countries on meeting the increased demand from the EU \u2014 and the world \u2014 for LNG over the next few years,\u201d El Molla said.
