Iran asks Pakistan to speed up construction of Peace Pipeline

Within the framework of a two-day visit to Pakistan by the President of Iran, Hassan Rouhani, Tehran urged Islamabad to speed up the construction of its section of the pipeline, through which, after the commissioning, gas will be supplied to the neighboring country.

The pipeline, known as the Peace Pipeline was supposed to be commissioned last year. Iran began the construction in March 2013 and has completed its part on time. However, the Pakistani side has delayed the fulfillment of its obligations, explaining it by the lack of funds, TASS writes, referring to the Shana news agency.
