"Houthi Missiles in the Red Sea? The Land Solution" with Hanan Fridman

Description

It got little attention at the time, but the U.S.-sponsored India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) initiated in September 2023 answers China’s Belt and Road Initiative. IMEC also helps deal with threats to maritime security in the Middle East by routing trade from Asia via the United Arab Emirates to Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Israel, then on to Europe. How great is the potential of this “land bridge”? How does it affect global trade? Does it offer an alternative to vulnerable shipping routes?

Hanan Fridman founded Trucknet Enterprises in 2016 with the aim of best matching cargo companies and available empty space in trucks; Trucknet Enterprise has quickly become a leader in servicing IMEC. Mr Fridman worked logistics at Israel’s Ministry of Defense and is actively involved in the Prime Minister’s Office Fuel Substitutes and Smart Transportation Development Program. He holds a BBA from The College of Management Academic Studies.
