The emergence of the new Coronavirus (Covid-19) crisis and its exacerbation in the way we are living in now was not considered, as facing epidemics requires a quick response from countries, which is reflected in the activities of supply chains, logistics and trade movement, so its primary goal is to respond to the increasing and unpredictable market requirements, in an effort to reduce the damage to markets in the short term, as well as create partnerships in the global supply chain that achieve long-term sustainability.

From this standpoint, the Union of Arab Chambers, in partnership with the Arab Brazilian Chamber, and in cooperation with the League or Arab States are organizing a virtual seminar on the impact of Corona's repercussions on the transport and logistics sector, not only in the Arab world, but in light of the creation of blocs with countries of the world. Whereas, the Arab summits recommended the importance of establishing shipping lines to connect the Arab world with South America, and Brazil places this project among its priorities to stimulate trade with the Arab world.
