India envoy: Chabahar a golden opportunity for New Delhi
India’s Ambassador to Tehran Rudra Gaurav Shresth said Iran’s southeastern Chabahar port is a golden opportunity for India to expand its economic ties.
“Chabahar’s position in the expansion of trade exchanges in the Middle East, Eurasia, and even Europe is unique,” Shresth said during his visit to the port on Friday, IRNA reported.
“We planned this trip to visit the port’s infrastructure and implement our investment commitments,” the ambassador maintained.
The official called on the members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) to take the necessary measures for using the capacities of the Chabahar port.
“The International North-South Transport Corridor can serve as a safe and efficient route for landlocked countries in Central Asia to access the Indian Ocean, and we all must strive to realize the corridor’s full potential,” the official added.
