.@HayekAmir: The India-Middle East–Europe Economic Corridor is a major integration initiative, creating a network of shipping routes and railways as well as digital and energy infrastructure. This project can help the economy in the region as well as outside. #TWIPolicyForum

.@HayekAmir: Regional alliances are critical for security. It would be very hard to rebuild #AbrahamAccords. It is important to do what's necessary to protect the agreements. The U.S. can be helpful in not letting this achievement vanish. #TWIPolicyForum
