This study focused on the effects of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine on the Mediterranean freight transport and logistics sector. However, in this study some important topics were under-represented, and they could be explored in future research. In a world that is more vulnerable, uncertain and complex than ever, supply chains must become more resilient and be able to permanently adapt to major risks, both health and geopolitical. Indeed, the impact of the war points to the need to improve the resilience of logistics systems and risk management in the Mediterranean supply chains. Another important topic to guide future research concerns the assessment of the environmental impact of logistics and the sustainable mobility of goods in the region. Finally, the issue of the integration of transport and logistics systems between the different countries in the area remain seldom investigated. Hence, future research might consider investigating such topics.
