Iran and India to Develop Chabahar Port

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and India’s Prime Minister Narendra Damodardas Modi voiced determination to implement the agreements signed between the two countries, particularly a project to develop Iran’s southeastern port city of Chabahar.

In a telephone conversation with the Indian premier on Wednesday, President Rouhani said Tehran is prepared to upgrade the level of ties with New Delhi to that of a strategic partnership, Tasnim reports.

He also stressed the need for immediate implementation of the agreement the two countries signed during Modi’s visit to Iran in May, particularly a contract to develop Chabahar.

“Iran’s port of Chabahar, which links different countries in the region together, such as India, Afghanistan and Central Asia, is a symbol of cooperation between Tehran and New Delhi,” President Rouhani added.
