Cum s-a prăbușit Neom, megaproiectul de 500 de miliarde al Arabiei Saudite

Former autocratic monarchs left behind monumental ruins, while Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman launched the ambitious "Vision 2030" plan to transform the nation. This initiative aimed to create extraordinary structures and diversify the economy beyond oil dependency. However, as the 2030 deadline approaches, financial constraints and reduced foreign investments have led to project cutbacks and cancellations. Notable projects like "The Line" and the Trojena ski resort have faced significant downsizing or abandonment. Authorities are now focusing on smaller, achievable victories rather than grandiose megaprojects, as they reassess the feasibility of their ambitious plans amidst ongoing regional conflicts and economic challenges.
