Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has called for the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb to remain open, describing the two waterways as vital arteries of the global economy.
Sharif said the strategic maritime routes should connect nations rather than become “chokepoints of confrontation”, stressing that the waters should carry the promise of prosperity rather than the risks of war.
The Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb are major maritime chokepoints for global energy and trade, with disruptions affecting shipping routes, supply chains and energy markets.
