Paragraph 5 a (new)
5a. Emphasises that special support must be given to Member States, such as Cyprus and Malta, that face serious problems due to their isolation from the electricity grids. New measures should therefore be promoted forthwith, particularly for those States, to ensure that they can attain the 10% target for electricity interconnection by 2020, thereby also enhancing the Union’s energy security.

Paragraph 20 a (new)
20a. Emphasises the importance of promoting the Israel-Cyprus-Greece electricity interconnection project (Euro- Asia Interconnector), which has already been included in the projects of common interest for the EU.
