NEW DELHI: India declares on Friday, to make Chabahar Port in Iran operational by 2019, regardless of threat of transformed US sanctions against Tehran.
Chabahar port complex in Iran is a new transportation access strip for land-locked Afghanistan, which may result in opening way for millions of dollars in trade and cut its dependence on Pakistan.
According to Transport and Shipping Minister Nitin Gadkari, the port would offer easy accessibility to CIS countries.
Gadkari was on a two-day visit to Tajikistan for representing India at a global conference on “International Decade for Action: Water for Sustainable Development”.
US President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from a 2015 nuclear deal and penalize financial institutions for doing business with Tehran is clouding Chabahar’s viability.
