The author proposes basically 2 solutions, while pretending otherwise. These 2 are: Israel and Israel.
He claims that Sisi will not allow Egypt to become dependent on Israel for its energy needs due to political reasons, while nevertheless vaguely explaining the sleight of hand by which Sisi will be able to do exactly that.
Eni, the energy company mentioned as a possible source for natural gas, is a 50% partner in Union Fenosa, the company that essentially blackmailed Egypt into agreeing to import gas from Israel; and the energy support from the Gulf cited as another potential solution, is actually being given in the form of a cash loan with which Egypt can purchase petroleum products.
Sisi will be able to appear to be using energy from the Gulf, and from local production, while in fact importing gas from Israel as a condition for the domestic use of gas produced by Eni’s operations.
