Title
ASSAB Corridor Annotations
Abstract

Assab Corridor is currently not functional as a trade route between Ethiopia and Eritrea due to the dilapidated state of infrastructure in Assab as the main highway leading to Assab in Eritrea was destroyed during the Ethio-Eritrean war. With the advent of peace between Ethiopia and Eritrea, it is expected that Assab Corridor will be a crucial corridor that serves Ethiopia in addition to Djibouti Corridor thereby promoting trade, interconnectivity, and integration between the two countries. It is recommended that bilateral agreements be signed between Ethiopia and Eritrea to support the development of infrastructure to facilitate trade between the two countries.
