Saudi Arabia is advancing a plan to reroute the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor through Syria instead of Israel. Two sources familiar with the discussions told The Jerusalem Post that the effort aims to sideline Israel from the project.
The corridor was announced in 2023 as a trade and infrastructure link connecting India, the Middle East, and Europe. The original route included transit through Israel.
No official statements from Saudi Arabia or other participating governments have been issued regarding the proposed change. Further details on timelines or formal agreements have not been released.
