Saudi Arabia is studying a major tourism project to build a huge sea canal along the country's border with Qatar, which will turn it into an island and be operated by a Saudi investment consortium of nine companies in the field, the Saudi newspaper Sabaq reported.

The newspaper said the large project "pending official approval and authorization to start implementation is expected to complete in 12 months only."

In its report, Sabaq stated that the planned plan is to establish a maritime channel starting from the Salwa border between Saudi Arabia and Qatar to the mouth of Khor Al-Ghadim in the Arabian Gulf. So that the extension of the east coast of Saudi Arabia is complete and unbroken, given that the border with Qatar is 60 km. Which interrupts this extension, which hinders inter-trade and tourism development plans for the region, which is vital as a hub for the Gulf Arab countries.

The channel will be along the border with Qatar and will eliminate all land borders but it will be purely Saudi and no one has any right to it. The channel will be inside Saudi territory about one kilometer from the official border with Qatar, making the land area connected with Qatar a Military protection and surveillance area , although the proposed range is 1 kilometer, but it will be presented to relevant bodies such as the Ministry of Defense and border guards to determine the safe and necessary areas.

The project is considered to be many times the size of Qatar.

The investment project of Riyadh on the borders of Qatar is a "Saudi-Egyptian Emirati" partnership.. "The initial cost of the project was estimated at 2.8 billion riyals", the newspaper said, noting that a giant marine channel would be drilled from Salawi to Khor al-Adid, extending the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia in full and uninterrupted as the border with Qatar is 60 km The only one that cuts this extension, which hinders the inter-trade and tourism development plans for the region, which is vital as a connecting point for the Gulf States. And that there is no going back on the project even if the Qatari crisis is solved..

This is so dumb.

Man Saudi Arabia must be the most scared and paranoid country in the world. First $100 billion+ weapon deals and now it wants to create a river to separate itself from tiny Qatar. :omghaha:
 
.
Qatar is about 5 seconds away from becoming the next Atlantis.
 
. .
imagine how bin salman must be warning qatar
سوي هذا ولا اقطعكم من ارض و عقكم فلبحر
 
. .
Qatar is doing just fine right now... These countries have something against Qatar... They tried to invade Qatar in late 90’s/ early 00’s and failed.

I support Qatar! Go host the world cup and make your people proud!
 
.
Lol build an island, invest billions, only to make any future plan of invading your small neighbour even harder, these Saudis are tactical geniuses lol

I’m sure Qatar will welcome this, start marketing itself as an desert island resort
 
. .
Well, seems Qatar is not behaving like good kid. Someone is behind this policy to control the regional behavior.
 
.
Well...Well...Well...

Can they also make the Two Holy cities a big Island far from KSA Territory?
That way... things could end up "Interesting"...
