It is the sense of Congress that— the significance of diplomatic initiatives such as the Greece-Cyprus-Israel-US 3+1 format, the East Mediterranean Gas Forum and the Abraham Accords should be recognized and the United States should maintain its leadership role in these diplomatic initiatives; the United States should continue to actively participate in the initiatives of the East Mediterranean Gas Forum; the Eastern Mediterranean region is a key gateway that can link three continents and the United States should support energy and transportation infrastructure, connectivity initiatives, defense cooperation, and other forms of integration in and around the region; the United States recognizes the unique role of Eastern Mediterranean countries as both a distinct subregion and a central connector within the broader IMEC corridor; the 3+1 diplomatic initiative should resume with a meeting of the Secretary of State with the Ministers of Israel, Greece, and Cyprus; and the statement of policy in section 203 of the Eastern Mediterranean Security and Energy Partnership Act of 2019 ( 22 U.S.C. 2373 note) should guide the Secretary of State in promoting connectivity between India, the Middle East and Europe, including participation in the trilateral dialogue on energy, maritime security, cybersecurity and protection of critical infrastructure conducted among Israel, Greece, and Cyprus.
