India expects long-term arrangement with Iran on Chabahar port: Foreign Minister S Jaishankar
India is poised to establish a "long-term arrangement" with Iran regarding the management of the Chabahar port, according to External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar. This move, occurring amidst a busy election season, is seen as a significant geopolitical initiative aimed at enhancing regional connectivity. The port development in Chabahar is crucial for India's plans to facilitate trade with Afghanistan and Central Asian countries while bypassing Pakistan's ports.
