More than one-tenth of global trade passes through a strait just 20 miles wide at the southern entrance to the Red Sea. GREAT DECISIONS examines a region where the world’s great powers can cooperate to create stability — or allow deepening rivalries to explode into conflict. Narrated by David Strathair.
