Because with stability, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen would have control of the world’s trade through the Red Sea and Suez Canal. Making tons of money on shipping through the region. Their regional power is de facto because other countries in the region are unstable and can’t secure trade through the canal.
To anyone visualizing a comically long canal running straight through like 5 countries, you’re not actually far off. Unfortunately, it’s just a railroad to Moscow.
