The Council of State on Monday
greenlit the TransAdriatic Pipeline (TAP), rejecting appeals
from the Puglia regional government. The Council of State ruled
that the TAP project had provided sufficient details on the
environmental impact of the project. TAP aims to bring Caspian
natural gas to Europe. Puglian olive groves have been recently
uprooted to make way for the pipeline, sparking 'No TAP'
protests.
