Pakistan is under US, Saudi pressure over Iran: Iranian Minister

TEHRAN (IRNA) – US, Saudi and United Arab Emirates put Pakistan under pressure for construction of Iran-Pakistan Gas pipelines, said Iran’s Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zangeneh.

Pakistan is under pressure and has not built even one kilometer of the pipeline despite Iran’s follow ups, said Zangeneh.

The Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline, also known as the Peace Pipeline, or IP Gas, is a 2,775-kilometer (1,724 mi) pipeline to deliver natural gas from Iran to Pakistan.
