The India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) is one of the “most ambitious” modern connectivity initiatives, says the Ambassador of Saudi Arabia to Cyprus, Fawaz bin Abdulrahman Alshubaili, while underlining that Cyprus, due to its important geographical location, can connect the Middle East and Europe and become a regional hub. At the same time, he points to tension and conflict in the region, which, he says, raises questions as to how the necessary infrastructure will be shielded.
