I think that was a bogeyman propagated by inland states.  I am not
aware of it actually happening, but the WA fibers are only now coming
online.  When Regional carriers arise, as long as they are allowed to
cross borders, they will.

IIUC, Egypt made SEACOM move their fiber from one side of the Suez
canal to their side (for security of course) that was expensive!

It would be if it came up I think.  There are regional regulatory
bodies in each region that can deal with this )non-existent AFAIK)
issue.
