Tehran virtually suspends preferential trade agreement

[Cheetah786]

Well you are entitled to your views, no matter how eschewed they might be!!!

Kuwait has NOT banned Pakistanis

The UAE has NEVER supported BLA, and neither do their leaders hide in the UAE. As a matter of fact the hide in Iran.

Just because you keep ranting, doesn't turn it into a fact.

Kuwait maintains ban on Pakistan in new visa policy | Pakistan | Dunya News

THERE is a total ban on all types of visas for Pakistanis in Kuwait. The ban, imposed on nationals from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan, includes suspending all tourism, visit and trade visas as well as visas sponsored by spouses.

It is indeed the prerogative of the Kuwaiti government to hire immigrant workers from any country. However Pakistanis already working in Kuwait must be governed by laws so as not to put them under additional emotional stress, resulting from forced separation from their families.

There have been a number of cases where families have been sent back to Pakistan after paying a hefty penalty since even after the completion of medical, fingerprinting and other formalities, residence visa was not stamped.

Scores of letters from resident Pakistanis in Kuwait appear in local newspapers on a regular basis pleading with the government of Kuwait to issue family visas and not to separate children from parents, and husbands from wives.

MPs told Russia , India and UAE involved in Bloch insurgency


MPs told Russia, India and UAE involved in Baloch insurgency - The Express Tribune

A briefing given by the then director general of military operations, Ahmed Shuja Pasha, to parliamentarians has been characterised as being supportive of the US.

According to the WikiLeaks cable, a draft of a presentation shared with the US by National Security Adviser Mahmud Ali Durrani stated that Pakistan had not allowed the US to conduct cross-border operations. Parliamentarians were also told that India and Russia were involved in the insurgency in Balochistan. Pasha said India has established nine training camps along the Afghan border, where they are training members of the Baloch Liberation Army. He also claimed “India and the UAE (reportedly due to opposition to construction of the Gwadar port) were funding and arming the Baloch. Pasha also claimed that the Russian government was directly involved in funding/training/supporting the insurgency.”


I will be more then happy to share more of the reality with you. Or just go through the PDF Pages full of information.

From the article

He also claimed “India and the UAE (reportedly due to opposition to construction of the Gwadar port) were funding and arming the Baloch."

Maybe Iran and U.A.E in some ways are both fomenting trouble in Balochistan
Case in point the Lyari gang leader Uzair Baloch is hiding in Dubai but traveled on an Iranian passport

For his Information
BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army), the brainchild of KGB that was built around the core of BSO (Baloch Students Organization). BSO was a group of assorted left-wing students in Quetta and some other cities of Balochistan. Misha and Sasha (former KGB agent) can be considered among the architects of the original BLA.[9] The BLA remained active during the Russo-Afghan war and then it disappeared from the surface, mostly because its main source of funding – the Soviet Union – disappeared from the scene.[10]

On 10 February 1973, Pakistani police and paramilitary raided the Iraqi embassy in Islamabad without prior permission of the Iraqi government, during which a large cache of small arms, ammunition, grenades and other supplies were found in crates marked 'Foreign Ministry, Baghdad'. The ammunition and weaponry was believed to be destined for Baloch rebels. Pakistan responded by expelling and declaring persona non grata the Iraqi Ambassador Hikmat Sulaiman and other consular staff. In a letter to President Nixon on February 14, Bhutto blamed India and Afghanistan, besides Iraq and the Soviet Union, for involvement in a “conspiracy … [with] subversive and irredentist elements which seek to disrupt Pakistan’s integrity”[11][12] Wright-Neville writes that besides Pakistan, some Western observers also believe that India secretly funds the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA).[13] In August 2013 US Special Representative James Dobbins said Pakistan's fears over India's role in Afghanistan are “not groundless.[14] Defence Secretary and former Senator Chuck Hagel said "India for some time has always used Afghanistan as a second front, and India has over the years financed problems for Pakistan on that side of the border".[15]

farsis are basically hindooos to the West. Both worship fire and are into mystical nonsense. Why Pakistanis trust or have an affinity to them is beyond me.

 

[Echo_419]

The entire South Asia is a piece of shit if you ask me. Strange people live here.

OK don't ever put this much truth in one post ever again

 

[ziaulislam]

The agreement between Tehran and US/Europe is not yet signed and this is Tehran's mood. Imagine what they'll do when the agreement will be signed and sanctions will be either lifted or relaxed. There is after all a reason why Iran's neighbors are not comfortable with her. Iranians are dying to bring back the glory days when Iran was an empire.

iran mood has been the same since revolution. not too friendly to us.

even before the sanction they were not ready to do any concession in gas export and sticked hard to there price formula, later after external sanctions they scrambled and were ready to sign a gas deal knowing there revenue will fall.
after sanctions dont expect a swift deal, if it didnt happen in 2000s in mushi era when he tried but they refused to lower gas prices why do you expect it will happen again. Iran will only sell us if they need to, they dont consider us friendly. Yes they will sell us gas but as expensive as qatar and we have better chance to get cheaper gas through spot buying however, Iran knows that pipeline doesnt has additional 3$ price tag with transport, re gasification etc so it knows it has the upper hand, as gas will always be at the end cheaper through pipelines.

having said that our policy in Yemen shouldnt depend upon iran behavior, there is nothing we can do to change Iran behaviour, as there is nothing we can do to change india behavior, it is what it is!

Your Dunya news article is dated 04th Apr 2014, and Dawn news is dated 13th April 2012. Please see the following article which appeared in Kuwait Times on 05th April 2014
Kuwait to lift ban on Pakistani visas - Kuwait Times | Kuwait Times

Members might be interested to know, one of the major reasons for the ban was the fact that Iraqis, Iranians and Afghanis, had been caught on Pakistani Passports, making Pakistani Passport one of the easiest to get for any x.y or z. This issue still stands till today. The Pakistani Ministry of Interior as usual provided ZERO cooperation.

The accusation that the UAE has been involved in Baluchistan is "flimsy" at best, NO concrete evidence has been provided to date. All the accusations revolve around "maybe" , "could be". Misleading politicians and articles do not change facts on the ground. Had Mr.Shuja Pasha really accused the UAE of anything, he wouldn't be working for them as an Advisor TODAY. IF you want to know exactly what he is doing ask @Horus I'm sure he knows!!
http://www.thenewstribe.com/2013/02...i-honcho-ahmed-shuja-pasha-as-advisor-report/

Thirdly, the fact that UAE has stood by Pakistan through thick and thin, pouring in Billions per annum not only for infrastructure works like hospitals, schools , roads, bridges etc but helping Pakistan Army pay salaries at a time when the state coffers were empty. Ask anyone with access to PA finance Dept. Iran on the other hand, has done no such thing!!

PDF might be full of info, but is NOT an authority.

IF you want to blindly support Iran, Please do so, but at the same time do not replace facts with fiction.

Funny thing is you support Iran and ignore the fact that Iranians don't think twice about shooting our soldiers on the border. We should definitely send you to the Iranian Border and see how long you last!!

 

[WAR-rior]

Yes you are right but Iran is way too extreme and it wants other countries to literaly become it's client states.
They have also started to talk too much about the 1000 year old Persian empire now a days.

That's a lame parameter to convict someone as wanting client states. Even India now speaks of its ancient glory and having highest GDP of world during 100 BCE. Does it mean we want to rule the world and make everyone our client state?

Needn't said, it's all to pump up national pride especially of a civilization which had a glorious part but currently sleeping. It's to infuse confidence in a populace so as to work hard and perform better towards growth of the nation.

Not everything means that people will take swords in their hands and charge in on a war horses to take on other countries.

Stop reading unnecessarily too much into everything.

 

[aqdus]

To remind you -
None barring one of Pakistan's neighbours are comfortable with Pakistan either.
India, Iran, Afghanistan all have problems with Pakistan.

yup like your neighbours are living in full peace.................

hahahaaa good joke right?

Did u laugh?

 

[Jungibaaz]

It's slowly becoming a known fact in Pakistan, the entire Middle East is crazy.

 

[Donatello]

This statement is not entirely true. Pakistan is fishing; KSA has promised $120 billion investment in Egypt, and Pakistan is right now bargaining with the Middle eastern countries. @Horus Am I wrong?

As far as Iran-Pak relations 're concerned, Pakistan is not in Iran's good books since some time now. The trade relation hitting new lows would be a first though.

Its more like Iran is not in Pakistan's good books. The fact that they desperately want Pakistan to stay out of Yemen, supports that.
