UAE Minister of State for Foreign Trade Sani Zeyoudi said on the 8th the UAE has
opened multiple alternative logistics corridors and is accelerating east‑coast
port construction to mitigate transit disruptions at the Strait of Hormuz.
Actions include regional corridors linking the Arabian Gulf, the Red Sea and the
Gulf of Oman; transshipment via Oman's Sohar and Duqm ports; expedited work at
Khorfakkan, Fujairah and Dibba; and commissioning new energy pipelines to link
UAE energy supplies with international markets. Zeyoudi said these measures will
be incorporated into the UAE's long‑term national strategy as regional
geopolitical shifts this year pose more direct, more severe supply‑chain
challenges.
