The United States, while once again making its concerns on the proposed Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline project known, seems circumspect about the long term viability and success of the project itself, considering the fact that it has had several false starts already. Asked about the US perspective on the proposed pipeline, discussed during the trilateral summit (involving Afghanistan) in Islamabad, the US State Department spokesperson Nuland said, “We have concerns and have voiced them with the Pakistan government.” “The pipeline project has had numerous false starts. We’ve spoken to this many times before,” she said.
Asked about President Zardari s statement that Pakistan will continue the project against all, she said, “I’m not going to speculate where this is going to go We think it’s a bad idea; we’ve made that clear.” However, she said the US was pro cooperation between Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran, to support the Afghan peace process. Asked about countries still trading with Iran despite US efforts to impose sanctions, she said the US administration was engaged in conversations with all such governments on the importance of implementing existing international sanctions.
pak iran gas pipeline is a bad idea -US
LOL @ US 😀
God what is this country's problem. Throw US out now!
What spokesperson Ms Nulland meant about the "bad idea" is let US do it for you!
It can be only good idea if it was built and operate by a US company. As there is no cut for US its bad idea indeed! and why people of Pakistan get some relatively cheap energy?
Attacking Afghanistan and Iraq was a very bad idea indeed. SO GET OUT. For Pakistan, "Iran-Pakistan Pipeline Zindabad." Salams
Pak-Iran gas pipeline is an excellent idea. The two countries must strive to enhance their mutual co-operation in economic and political fields. America is a common enemy and they must not pay any attention to their criticism. The whole American policy in the domain of international affairs is bad and against norms of justice & decency.
Ye hamara andruni muamla hai America ya kisi mulk ki mukhalfat ki parvah nahi.
They talk hell about rights, justice, fairplay, democracy and these all are in their constitution but still these fascist says its a bad idea for other countries to decide on the matters that are of atmost important for them.
If this is the bad idea then US should solve our energy crises other wise keep shut.Its only the policy of US to completely led down pak
