The global population is projected to reach approximately 9.5 billion by 2050, significantly increasing the demand for energy. In response, both states and energy companies will need to establish long-term strategies to ensure adequate energy supply. The foreign policies of nations are increasingly shaped by their ability to secure and access energy resources, making energy security a central factor in international relations. As nations strive to meet growing energy demands, geopolitical considerations surrounding energy access, distribution, and sustainability will play a pivotal role in defining global power dynamics and shaping the future of international diplomacy.
