Istanbul to Islamabad sounds like a pipe dream. This cities have absolutely no connection whatsoever.

I think it’s better to establish a Kabul to Islamabad. A city merely a couple hours away before we think about Europe.

This a practical and most economically beneficial route. It will be a huge boost to CPEC and line up powerful countries for large trade.

If Pakistan annexes Afghanistan, it will be beneficial too. But it's not likely to happen. No need to add the "C" to PEC... It's an Islamic Economic Corridor. Pakistan, Iran, Azerbaijan, Turkey

Mutual prosperity.

I know it's hard for Iranians to think this way for others.

Ever heard of the Durand line?

Ever heard of the Durand line?

well, I knew its something older than modern Pakistan .another remnant of the British trouble making around the world. just making sure after they left the area there won't be any peace and prosperity for the people who live in the area.
if you don't want that as a border , well you must change it and for that the norm is trade land , give Pashtun dominated area to Afghanistan and get Panjabi dominated are from them

It has potential to make Pakistani exports more attractive in Europe by cutting down the transit time. Pakistani exports would be preferable than Indian products even if both are on par for quality and price.

Pakistan can actually compete with northern Africa for exports to Europe.

What kind of lunacy is this?

You should stop reading books from Indian libraries.

First you said don't annex territories then you give ideas of land and people exchange.
