TEHRAN (FNA)- The Iranian Navy is establishing a new naval base at the country's Southeastern borders along the coast of the Sea of Oman in a bid to strengthen the country's line of defense, Iran's top Navy commander said.

"The naval base which is under-construction is located in our country's far east coasts in the Gwatr Gulf along the borders with Pakistan," Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said on Sunday.

"The Iranian navy has so far had no military presence in the region, but now, we will have a presence in the region in a bid to defend our country's interests and waters so we could have a better watch on the sea trafficking being carried out in the region," Sayyari reiterated.

Sayyar added that the new base will be part of the Navy's third naval zone in Konarak.

He said that the Navy has intensified its efforts to develop the Makran coasts, which stretches from Iran's port city of Bandar Abbas to Makran (also known as Pasabandar).

Well I can't see why it mu be a troll thread , Our Navy and Pakistan navy has good relation , and my guess is this base more likely is going to be used to fight Trafficking goods and drugs , it's major problem in those areas .
also I guess this help us to increase our presence in Indian Ocean which we need to protect or shipping lines from the pirates , specially now that we ourselves insure our ships.
 
that wont be an anti-Pakistan act for sure....

Iranian navy is just geting stronger and it needs new ports to host comming frigates.as you are aware,IRGC has the responsibilty to protect and control Persian gulf.on the other hand Army has the responsibility to pretect our nation's interest in other waters,considering this fact,the army needs to establish its bases not only in Persian gulf.

I doubt this has much to do with Pakistan. Getting leverage over the strait of Hormuz sounds more relevant.
 
What I heard from navy commander's interview the road map is to develop the Makran Coastline in general for economic development which provides backup to navy for its presence in Indian ocean. Also he noted that they will cooperate with Pakistan, China and India, maybe Seri Lanka to secure Indian ocean from pirates because in next 70 years this waterway will be very important to world economy.
 
Both Iran and Pakistan have great relations so whether we build a base or they build a base, it will not be against one another. I see something in common for both of us. U.S /NATO presence being limited. :pakistan:

Very odd time... when Indians are getting uncomfortable with China at Gawadar.

Considering Indian presence at Iranian ports and cities close to Pakistani borders, hints this one to be another one of there under cover anti Pakistan operational setup.

I don't think so..... There is change in relation between India & Iran and i can feel it while living here. Plus - China is more important for Iran as compared to India. Try to analyze in current situation instead of past circumstances.

Sure... I was analysing based on history and seriously hope that your feeling is right.
Still, a naval base close to our border will unnecessarily bother our navy.

well , according to our Constitution no foreign army or military is allowed to have any base in Iran territory or use our territory for any purpose .so Indian navy can't have any presence there .
