He is a good diplomat.
He was actually clearing the side of the Iran.
In both ways Gwadar will be screwed.Being a good business men and relatively stable situation in Iran.They can actually make the Chabhar a success.Good for India,Pakistan and China.But practically it will cause the demise of the Gwadar.
Even if Pakistan still not cooperate the result would be same

It has no effect on Gwader

No need to argue .
Gwadar will see the same fate like what happened in SL.
Because in Gwadar China is the rule maker.
But in Chabhar Iran herself ,and other nations can invest if they want .

Chabahar can be a supplement to Gwader. With the estimated trade going through there, it’s likely that Gwader might not get enough traffic.

The real loser of this deal will be India. As it expose that they have no need for Chabahar except to make news.

Iran says it has offered Pakistan and China participation in India's Chabahar project

NEW DELHI: In what may come as a shock to India, Iran said yesterday it offeredPakistan and China participation in the Chabahar project, a port that is being built by India for the express purpose of bypassing Pakistan.

Pakistan's Dawn newspaper reported today that Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif yesterday invited Pakistan to participate in Chabahar seaport project and in the development of its link with the Gwadar Port "as he sought to allay concerns here (in Pakistan) over Indian involvement in the Iranian port."

“We offered to participate in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). We have also offered Pakistan and China to participate in Chabahar,” said Zarif, who is on a three-day visit to Pakistan, while delivering a lecture at the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad, said Dawn.

Chabahar is said to be becoming a success story in the India-Iran relationship. The first phase of the Chabahar port in south-east Iran, which India is developing, was inaugurated in December last year. The port opened a new strategic transit route between India, Iran and Afghanistan that bypassed Pakistan. It is expected to cut transport costs/time for Indian goods by a third and likely to ramp up trade among India, Afghanistan and Iran in the wake of Pakistan denying transit access to New Delhi for trade with the two countries.

Given this context, India's not likely to be pleased with the Iranian foreign minister's comments. It's possible though that Zarif was merely making conciliatory remarks. That's because he went out of his way to assure Pakistan that its ties with India are not in conflict with Islamabad.

Zarif drew a comparison with Pakistan’s ties with Saudi Arabia and said that just like that relationship does not tarnish Islamabad's ties with Tehran, India's and Iran's relationship isn't going to affect Pakistan negatively, reported Mehr News, an Iranian news agency. He added that the Gwadar port city in Pakistan and Chabahar transit agreement between India, Iran and Afghanistan are “complementary” and not “competitive”.

for what ....??

 

[MultaniGuy]

China can invest in Chabhar port .
Much better than Gwadar.
And unlike Pakistan ,Iran will totally control the Chabhar.

How is Chabahar better than Gwadar?

It is Gwadar which is better than Chabahar, Gwadar has a straight link to China and through China, access to Eastern Central Asian Republics.

Why China and specially Pakistan would want to join Chahbahar port project??

Because unless they join they'll lose out. In the past month Afghanistan has reoriented 80% of its exports from Karachi to Chabahar: link

 

[El Sidd]

Yeah we will think about it....

Why dont the Iranians just name the port after the great Saint Kulbashan Yadev?

 

[HRK]

Afghanistan has reoriented 80% of its exports from Karachi to Chabahar: link

As if Afghanistan is an important country in the region.

China and Pakistan can do without Chabahar! Gwadar port is enough!

 

[Solomon2]

and we dependent on export from Afghanistan ....

It'll be showing up in Pakistan's balance-of-trade numbers in a few weeks, if it hasn't already.
