Los EAU planean construir nuevos puertos y centros petroleros en el Golfo de Omán para evitar el cierre del Estrecho de Ormuz - informe
Según un informe del FT, el nuevo puerto se construiría en la ciudad de Fuyaira, que ya tiene un puerto pero carece de la infraestructura necesaria para servir como un importante centro de exportación.
Valoración
The UAE is moving to reduce its vulnerability to a potential Strait of Hormuz closure by developing port and oil infrastructure in Fujairah on the Gulf of Oman. This strategic shift would allow the UAE to export oil without passing through the strait, which Iran has threatened to block. The key question is whether Fujairah can be upgraded quickly enough to handle major export volumes, and how Iran might respond to this end run around its chokepoint leverage.
