Kuwait connects its “Fiber” network to Iraq, 13 JUNE

  Kuwait connects its “Fiber” network to Iraq

The Kuwaiti telecommunications company Zajil, revealed that its “Fiber” network had been delivered to the borders of the two countries with Iraq.

The advisor to the company’s board of directors, Engineer Walid Saleh Al-Qallaf, told “Al-Sabah”: “The company is currently working on connecting from Kuwait to Al-Faw directly,” indicating “the operation of the Safwan port, which will be followed by the operation of the Al-Faw port, so that Iraq will be a major corridor for passing the network, not only in the Gulf.” But for the countries of East Asia, it will be synonymous with the Egyptian corridor.”

He added, "The Iraqi corridor needs full encouragement and government support to make it successful, as it is necessary and fundamental to the completion of these projects," noting that "Iraq has become the focus of attention of countries and major international companies due to the incidents that took place in the Red Sea and the fear of the cessation of communications through this corridor."

Al-Qallaf stated that “the incidents that took place in the Red Sea are a warning bell to search for a backup corridor for the Suez Canal, as heading towards Iraq was to be a successful corridor for these projects.”  link
