Iran has asked Pakistan to construct a portion of the Iran-Pakistan gasline,or be ready to pay a penalty of $18 billion.

[AlKardai]

They gonna let your citizens freeze in the winter . What's wrong with this Sunni pride? cannot import cost effective shia gas from just across the border but are willing to make Pakistanis lives miserable even in the summer.

Sects are BS.

 

[Mentee]

Sects are BS.

It sadly is a reality which is being reflected in our nation's utility bills.

 

[Taimur Khurram]

Gotta hand it to the geniuses in charge here, ruined CPEC, ruined the Iran-Pak pipeline, couldn't properly take advantage of being a major US ally during the WOT, etc

Every economic opportunity absolutely wasted, what a joke

It's almost like they're directly trying to destroy the country..........oh wait.

Pakistan is on their verge and people worried about keeping America happy

Cheap gas at door step but..............

 

[khansaheeb]

1) Get Russians to build the pipeline all the way to India via Pakistan
2) Pipeline to be managed by Russians, for an annual fee.
3) Pakistan gets transit fee + small leverage over India. Pakistan can threaten to shutdown gas supply to India, in case tensions rise.
4) Iran/Russia offers financial guarantees to India - that in case gas is not supplied, penalties are paid to India.

Not until Kashmir is given freedom.

Iran would not be successful in a ground war against Pakistan.

It would not end well for either. I was joking.

When was the last time Pakistan won a ground war against a near peer adversary. How about never. It will not end well for Pakistan. P0rn production, pimping and screwing prostitutes, disappearing civilians and knocking off journalists aren't exactly going to help in a ground war.

 

[Shawnee]

Funny!!!

Turkey is buying Iranian gas and also reselling it to Europe.

Pakistan could make easy money too.

And what if Pakistan does not agree to the arbritation? What can they do to a nuclear power ?

The gas that was not sold to Pakistan in the past 10 years was turned into Bitcoin.

Iran is among top Bitcoin miners. It was a great deal considering the price of Bitcoin.

Honestly I wish Iran had turned the gas sold to Turkey to Bitcoin too. Easy hindsight analysis.

Have you been involved in **** , pimping or been screwed? Why are you complaining if your ar$e is not on the front line.

My best guess is that India will not solely rely on this pipeline. Ofcourse we will make other arrangements too. But as long as this route can be used, it should be used as its cheap.

Pakistan can’t do anything to be honest. May be this will turn out to be another agreement like IWT.

Even if they stop it for whatever reasons, we will still get compensation for it (I believe that’s how the agreements will be made between Iran and India).

But the compensation is nothing compared to the business loss we suffer

Not until Kashmir is given freedom.

Inshallah, I'm with you. Soon the parts of kashmir occupied by pakistanis will be liberated by India.

 

[Olympus81]

Why not just build it and try our luck.

Sanctions is what’s worrying the Pakistanis?

 

[Darth Vader]

Good Luck Building that pipeline.,

Politicians & Generals will never go against Uncle Sam, Simple reason, they can easily Block all assets these Aholes hide in West.

in this case, Sadly Pakistan can't do much, When your whole lifeline depends on IMF you can't really go against Uncle Sam, Until Pakistan is able to build its own economy, others will keep pulling the strings of 200 Million Pakistanis

 

[my2cents]

No it goes to arbitration court. Which Pakistan has a lot of trouble with lately.

If it was India they would’ve built the pipeline already. These people need a backbone and a lesson in diplomacy

Make it IPI pipe line. Problem solved. India will foot the bill gladly. What use is your strategic location if you fail to capitalize it.

It has reduced after American sanctions.
Why put our interests at risk by keeping our resources in hands of Pakistan

Financial benefits should keep us in peace.
