Скачать или смотреть $5 Billion Red Sea Secret: Saudi Arabia’s Bold Move in Eritrea’s Port of Assab

Eritrea’s port of Assab is on the brink of a $5 billion transformation, drawing growing attention from Saudi Arabia and regional powers.

Located near the strategic Bab el-Mandeb Strait, Assab sits at one of the world’s most important maritime chokepoints — a gateway for global trade between Asia, Africa, and Europe.
