Manage episode 491058708 series 1301443
We're in Dubai looking back on two weeks of uncertainty and concerns the world’s busiest oil shipping channel, The Strait of Hormuz, might shut.
The UAE is a major global trading hub and home to the biggest port in the Middle East. We’ll be hearing how some countries are looking for alternatives to the Strait, such as pipelines or developing refineries.
And what could this mean for the future relationship between Gulf states like this one, and Iran?
Produced and presented by Sameer Hashmi Additional production: Lexy O'Connor
