The correct answer is Jordan. Jordan is a country in Asia that has a coastline along the Red Sea. It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the south and east, Iraq to the northeast, Syria to the north, and Israel and Palestine to the west. It is known for its ancient ruins, such as the archaeological site of Petra, and its capital city, Amman. Despite being a landlocked country, Jordan has access to the Red Sea through the Gulf of Aqaba, making it the Asian country with the shortest coastline.
