“I think it might be the right occasion for us to finally present our Mattei Plan”, he said in Addis Ababa.
The so-called “Mattei plan”, named after the founder of the Italian energy group Eni, Enrico Mattei, aims to transform Italy into an important energy center, distributing gas from North Africa and the Mediterranean to the rest of Europe.
African countries like Algeria last year replaced a significant part of Italy's gas celebrations that previously came from Russia.
