Afghanistan's Taliban Seeks Access to Iran's Chabahar Port for Trade

Taliban-run Afghanistan is pursuing a preliminary agreement with Iran to gain access to land at Chabahar port, aiming to build infrastructure for maritime trade.

Background

Afghanistan, a landlocked nation, has historically sought transit routes through neighboring countries to access international waters for trade. Iran's Chabahar Port, located on the Gulf of Oman, offers a strategic alternative, potentially reducing Afghanistan's reliance on Pakistani ports and fostering regional economic ties.
