Afghanistan, India open strategic road

Friday, January 23, 2009
KABUL: Afghan President Hamid Karzai and Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee opened a new road on Thursday that would help link Afghanistan with a port in Iran and challenge Pakistan’s dominance of trade routes into the landlocked country.

The 220-km road in the Nimroz province of Afghanistan is the centrepiece of a $1.1 billion Indian reconstruction effort in Afghanistan. India, denied access through Pakistan, hopes to be able to deliver goods to Afghanistan through the Iranian port of Chahbahar, and this has triggered fears in Pakistan it is being encircled.

NMow the nato has twp routes, one through russia and the other trough iran, so that the importance of pakistan in supporting the nato is diminished. This sets the stage for resizing of pakistan.

Agreed with the spirit of the article. W was a bad news all around. Wonder, however, how do you feel about the fact than the New President ascribes Pakistan the label of terrorist hub and seemed to continue, nay, strengthen the war in Afghanistan?

Yes, pre-emptive war is going to take the right direction-

It was sullied by Bush's oil interests.Obama has none such interests to go after Iraq......Obama is all for going after that rat Osama who is hiding in Pakistan........

Osama is in Pakistan and Obama is going after him now!!!
