Mohammed Essam Laaroussi, director of the Manzurat Center for Geopolitical and Strategic Studies in المغرب, analyzes the shifting energy landscape in Africa. His article, published in the Emirati magazine «Dar al-Watan», focuses on the role of major energy projects in reshaping power dynamics and regional integration. Laaroussi specifically highlights the Atlantic African Gas Pipeline project and its potential impact. The project signals a growing shift in energy infrastructure across the continent. This pipeline aims to contribute to stronger economic ties amongst nations in غرب إفريقيا. Ultimately, the author suggests this infrastructure could radically alter the geopolitical balance of the region. The analysis was originally published in Hespress, a Moroccan online newspaper.
