Since this is a Bilateral agreement prior to any sanctions , we should complete it 100%
It is a civilian project which helps elevates poverty and hardship (cooking , making food etc)

Middle East has shown they are business minded folks and as such Pakistan should also look for it's national economic interest , getting cheaper gas from Iran is beneficial to Pakistan's western frontier development

The gas is used by Civilians for cooking food , for warming homes and for fueling cars

It is a clean source of energy their is 0% reason why Pakistan should not complete this economic deal


India , Japan , Turkey , Europe all dealt with Iran , by passing American financial system for last 8 years direct Country to Country business

It has only been Pakistan who has tried to be patient

I think most people in Pakistan must be shocked at images from UAE/Bahrain of the blatant disregard for Kashmiri people

I heard stories that people were even arrested in Bahrain for holding political rally in favor of Kashmir

However it is time Pakistan really looked at it's alliances carefully

They say a friend in need is a friend in indeed

• China
• Turkey

Indispensable friends to Pakistan

Turkey / Iran are undeniable Democratic institutes similar to Pakistan , and their mode of life is very similar to Pakistanis

Dubai is in bad shape and not the same as it used to before so they are looking for their own country condition first. Already vat 5% imposed in dubai and business is going away from dubai. They invested a lot in hotel but no tourist coming because of hot weather around 47C. People of Pakistan must understand this as well.
