Trump Middle East Peace: Egypt to Invest $400m in Israel Gas Pipeline

President Trump’s Middle East peace is starting to re-emerge despite the feral efforts of the left/jihadi axis. This is a massive development that much of the mainstream media will ignore. Egypt’s future pipeline will enable Israel to increase natural gas exports to Egypt. In addition, expanded cooperation with Egypt on natural gas will eventually enable Israel to export natural gas to Europe through Egypt. Giving Israel much greater geopolitical depth against the pro-Hamas politicians in Europe who want to sanction Israel.

Together with the United States, we are strengthening Israel’s position as a regional energy power

Following the historic $35 billion agreement to export Israeli gas to Egypt, I visited the Leviathan platform with my friend, @USAmbIsrael , a great friend of Israel.

Egypt to invest $400m in Israel gas pipeline

Egypt will invest in a pipeline to link up with the pipeline Israel is building to Nitzana, Saudi newspaper Asharq Business reports, after the huge $35 billion deal with Leviathan partners.

By Globes, August 31st, 2025

Following the huge $35 billion gas deal between Leviathan Partners and Egypt, and preparations for approval of the Nitzana pipeline in Israel, which will allow for increased exports, Egypt has approved the construction of the pipeline from its side, at an investment of $400 million, Saudi London-based newspaper Asharq Business has reported.

Egypt is a particularly large gas consumer, and despite having significant gas reserves of its own, it is struggling to meet its energy needs. Gas from Israel is essential to its economy, and an alternative to the even more expensive liquefied natural gas (LNG). For Israeli gas companies, especially those that control the export-oriented Leviathan field, this is a prime business opportunity, as Egypt is willing to pay much higher prices for the exported gas compared to the relatively low price of gas sold to the Israeli market. US energy major Chevron is the operator of Leviathan, Israel’s NewMed Energy is the largest shareholder, and Israeli company Ratio is another partner.
