well, the gas on the coast was known of. apparently there even are wells drilled already, judging from the video you linked.

if not by pipeline, they can sell us the gas via the nice LNG terminals we have build now. it's not a huge distance, a handful of ships doing round trips could work!

i don't think these people are interested in solving political problems, political problems are what enables them to do almost anything.
