Iran, Pakistan and India will sign a deal this month to build a natural gas pipeline to help feed the subcontinent’s desperate need for energy, indeed a major blow to illegal US-led sanctions against Tehran and a defeat for US influence in South Asia.
The $7.5 billion “Peace Pipeline“ (IPI) project would bring gas from the South Pars gas fields through Balochistan (in Western Pakistan) into India. The project has stalled multiple times since first proposed in 1994 due to political tensions, changing governments, conflicts over prices, and most recently, the weight of American opposition.
However, the new agreement comes amid growing tension between the United States and Iran, which the US has sought to isolate from the world community with little or no results.
