In an effort to increase trade with India and the Gulf, Tajikistan is negotiating with Iran for the transit of cargo via the Chabahar port, with India's assistance. Recently, a cooperation agreement was reached between the transport ministers of Iran and Tajikistan. In a strategic move to expand trade, Tajikistan will get access to the port via Afghanistan or Uzbekistan-Turkmenistan.

New Delhi: With Tajikistan starting talks with Iran on freight transit via Chabahar port, which New Delhi helped develop, and a 10-year agreement with Tehran in 2024 for port administration, India's connectivity with Eurasia would be further enhanced.
