Iran invites Pakistan to participate in Chahbahar project

.
Chabahar and Gwadar can complement each other by allowing closest enroute shipping to unload to railway transport. This can benefit Iran and India if Pakistan allows land route for their goods. Also we will be uncomfortable using a facility that is managed by Indians.

Pakistani land route via Karachi or Gawadar will not benefit India atall. In fact it will give unwanted leverage to an adversary who always tried to block Indian trade access to Afg and Central Aisa. Only leverage was from wagha to tokam border but it is a long gone case now. In my opinion, India will even refuse Wagha Tokam route in another couple of years.

India has zero leverage. If Pakistan joins the Iranian project paid by you Indians and in turn Iran joins CPEC India is up the creek without a paddle

If horses could fly, Iran Paksitan gas pipeline would have been operational.. isn't it?

But your monkeys do fly and regarding Martians it's Indian claim that your ancestors fired lightening bolts out of their asses and had laser beam weapons but now can't even give your families a toilet to poop in. Instead preferring your women to show their BEHINDS to every rapist in India and that's 99.99 percent of you...YOU STARTED THE ABUSE.

Let our monkey on mars and your donkeys on dinner plate. And stay on the topic of Chahabar :lol:

Just invest 200 million dollars in chabhar we will get unlimited influence in iran. :pakistan:

Can any Iranian or Chinese member can confirm Iran and China using Gwadar for trade? Cuz its stupid to think being neighbor Iran-pak will be using a port. Also article proposed pak joining chabahar i.e., Iran not going to join CPEC/Gwadar.

Pakistan’s participation doesn’t make any difference in our agenda. We want an unrestricted access to Afghanistan, and Chabahar is just that.

Actually this would be good news if pak join chabahar/INSTC, Indian point was to reduce Gwadar/CPEC significance and i see us achieving that.

:enjoy: wow, 1 billion $ ki penelty ki jagah 200 million ka investment... 8-) Kya idea hai sir g.

That's Pakistani economics for you. Get used to it.

To be honest, I doubt Iran will rely on Pakistan given the faux pas they did with the Iran pipeline agreement, at their most economically perilous time.

And Chinese participation in Chabahar will be welcomed by both Iranian and Indian counterparts ;)

Well thats not the case.
Gwader port will transform the business in the region. Definitely it will take away some business from the regional ports due to its strategic location but at the same time it will provide a lot more business. China needs a lot of petroleum products which UAE can provide through Dubai and Chinese products will travel faster and cheaper to UAE so overall the business will be accelerated.
 
.
Chabahar and Gwader ports complement each other and both would be linked and help both countries for trade, Iran can benefit from Gwader for large shipments that Chabahar cannot handle.
 
.
Pakistan should invest in Chabahar to reduce the dominance of India in that region and encourage Iranians to do the same in Gwadar

This region should be kept clean from Indian dominance
 
.
I read it, and it’s natural for Pakistan and Iran to forge a good relation with each other. I still don’t understand what is India’s relevance in your mutual diplomacy.
You asked what you are supposed to see in the article... I told what.

I love your optimism

Islamabad: Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif has invited Pakistan to participate in the Chabahar Port project that connects India to Afghanistan, Central Asia and Eastern Europe, a leading Pakistani daily reported on Tuesday. The move may be seen as Zarif's bid to allay concerns here over the Indian involvement in the Iranian port, Dawn online reported. The Iranian minister also, meanwhile, extended the invitation to China.

"We offered to participate in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). We have also offered Pakistan and China to participate in Chahbahar," Zarif, who is on a three-day visit to Pakistan, said while delivering a lecture at the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad (ISSI) on Monday, according to the daily.

India, Iran and Afghanistan signed a trilateral agreement in 2016 to jointly develop the Chabahar port, opening a new strategic transit route between the three nations and other Central Asian nations, bypassing Pakistan. In November 2017, India delievered the first consignment of wheat to Afghanistan through the Chabahar Port.

Zarif had earlier held bilateral talks with his Pakistani counterpart Khawaja Asif and addressed a trade conference. The visiting Foreign Minister is being accompanied by a large trade delegation from Iran. He also said that Gwadar Port and Chabahar Port needed to be linked through sea and land routes for development of deprived Eastern and South-eastern Iran and South Western Pakistan.
