The US has extended India's sanctions waiver for the Iran Chabahar Port until early next year. This important port supports India's regional connectivity goals, offering key access to Afghanistan and Central Asia.
In a boost for India’s regional connectivity plan, especially with regard to Afghanistan, the administration of US President Donald Trump has granted the extension of sanctions waiver on Iran’s strategic Chabahar Port, News.Az reports citing Iranian media.
India has managed to get an extension for the sanction waiver until early next year on the Chabahar Port, according to The Times of India.
Chabahar Port plays a vital role in India’s regional connectivity strategy by providing access to Afghanistan and Central Asia-Eastern Russia.
