The Arab Bridge Maritime company represents a leading model for cooperation between Arab countries in the field of Transport. There is an urgent need to open new shipping lines and markets. The Arab Bridge is a model for joint Arab action, hailing the company’s ability to overcome all challenges including the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Al-Wazir had also held a bilateral meeting with his Jordanian counterpart. The bilateral meeting discussed ways to boost bilateral cooperation in land and sea transport.
