Its not so painful!

Please use it. We do not refer to Bharat as “Bha”.

Your self-contradictory comments, first say that there is no issue, then say that “it is a temporary phase” thereby accepting that there is an issue between Iran and Bharat.

Your assertion is not based on fact. Pakistan is one day older than Bharat–so your assertion on “older than” is not really valid.

If there is no conflict than kindly explain why The Bharati FM was asked not to come to Iran, why the Bharati Premiers trip to Teheran was canceled, and why Bharat voted against Iran at the IAEA. Also kindly explain why Bharat launched an Iran specific satellite for Israel. Why did the Bharati ambassador meet with the terrorist Rigi. Why has Bharat not signed the IPI pipeline. Why did Iran cancel the $6 billion LNG project with Bharat–it was retaliation for Bharat’s Anti-Iran policies.

Actually both nations are together on all fronts. US hegemony is a temporary set back between both ‘s relations.

It is a temporary phase.

Our relations are historic and can not be discussed in isolation in reference to present international situations.

Iran did not make trouble for Pakistan in 48,65 or 71. They were the first country to recognize Pakistan. There are some differences with Iran on Afghanistan and Iran–however on the whole they are pretty neutral but they are not “unfriendly”. they may have learned the lesson.

Iranians are proud of their ancient greatness. Persian Empire at one time did include some part of present day Pakistan. If the map was a historical one than it may be accurate.

Best regards

With all due respect the information is dated and obsolete.

The “strategic initiative” was the victim of Delhi backstabbing Iran in the back at the IAEA. Delhi also launched an Iran specific anti-tehran israeli satellite. To retaliate, Iran canceled the multi-billion Dollar LNG contract which Dr. SIngh could not resurrect this month. The Zaranj and Delaran higway is in disrepair–blown up by the Taliban who own 80% of Afghinatan. All the bridges have been destroyed and the road is in disrepair, unusable.

Chahhbahar is on hold as the links to Afghaintan via Iran. The rial link never happened. We wrote severla articles on this on Ruppe News. You should get out more–from your usual sources. The Mullahs don’t trust the Indians any more–and repeated anti-Iran votes at the IAEA hae not helped matters.

Please update your records on the dated information that you have published

a great piece of study by dr.christian fair. following are the refrences from his study named as:

INDO-IRANIAN TIES: THICKER THAN OIL
C. Christine Fair*Middle East Review of International Affairs Journal, Vol. 11, No.1 (March 2007).

“Overall, the trade picture appears to be positive: The total value of all trade for the fiscal year ending March 2005 was $1.6 billion, compared to $1.18 for 2003-2004 and $913 million in 2002-2003.While this represents a growth trajectory, the total trade between the United States and India in 2005 was about $27 billion.”

“One of the key instruments signed during Khatami’s 2003 visit was the “Road Map to Strategic Cooperation.” This document follows the New Delhi Declaration closely and establishes a targeted framework for fulfilling the objectives set forth by the Declaration.”

“As a part of this agreement, India agreed to help expand the Iranian port of Chahbahar and lay railway tracks that would connect Chahbahar to the Afghan city of Zaranj…. others in the region–such as Pakistan and China–fear that once it is complete, Indian naval vessels will have a presence there. These apprehensions are important and may affect the Chinese and Pakistani planning at Pakistan’s Gwador port”

“India has also committed to upgrading the 215-kilometer road that links Zaranj and Delaran as part of a circular road network that will connect Herat and Kabul via Mazar-e-Sharif in the north and Kandahar in the south. This would permit Indian goods to move into Afghanistan via Delaran and beyond”

“There were several reports of a bilateral accord that would permit India to access Iranian military bases in the event of war with Pakistan. This accord allegedly would also permit India to rapidly deploy troops and surveillance platforms as well as military equipment in Iran during times of crisis with Pakistan. If true, this is a turning point in regional relations and one that will, in principal, put Iran in opposition to Pakistan. These same reports claim that Indian and Iranian troops will conduct combat training, and naval forces will conduct “operational and combat training on warships and missile boats.”

“Numerous analysts of South Asia infer that there are close security ties between Delhi and Tehran because of the Indian consulate in Zahedan with a likely intelligence presence there. India also established a consulate in Iran’s port city of Bandar Abbas in 2001, which will permit India to monitor ship movements in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz.”

“The presence of Indian engineers at Chahbahar and of Indian military advisors and intelligence officials in Iran confers to India a significant access to Iran. This access has tremendous import for India’s ability to project power vis-à-vis Pakistan and Central Asia. It clearly provides India an enhanced ability to monitor Pakistan and even launch sub-conventional operations against Pakistan from Iran. Of late, numerous Pakistani officials opine that India is supporting the insurgency in Pakistan’s troubled Baluchistan province and is exploiting its position in Afghanistan to enhance its intelligence activities against Pakistan. Pakistani observers also note that the presence of Indian engineers (and perhaps naval personnel in the future) at Chahbahar has particular utility for monitoring what is happening at Pakistan’s Gwador port”

one should also answer the question that why a champion of islam feel hasitation for condemnation of indian govt and extremist hindu over genocide of indian muslims?
why we do not see an open support for kashmir issue?
why jews are in much better condition and enjoy religious freedom than sunni muslims?…
why iran supports secular northern Alliance against the taliban?
isn’t true that iran has much better relationship with india than pakistan?
isn’t that true that inspite some “bad patches” in indo iranian relations they are working closely?

Only banya-thinking measures state relations in Dollars and Cents. Surely Tehran doesn’t.
