NICOSIA, Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- The Great Sea Interconnector, an underwater electricity cable connecting the grids of Israel, Cyprus and Greece, could hold "great value" for Cyprus, according to an assessment presented to the government on Tuesday.
Cypriot Energy, Commerce and Industry Minister George Papanastasiou said the government had commissioned an international firm to assess the cable's viability, contribution to the island's electricity market, and geopolitical value "in the wider environment of the Eastern Mediterranean."
