KABUL:
Afghanistan stated on Wednesday work would start on a $10 billion gasoline pipeline traversing South Asia as officers joined dignitaries in neighbouring Turkmenistan to have a good time its completion on that aspect of the border.
Progress on the TAPI pipeline – operating by way of Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India – has been repeatedly delayed due to safety points in conflict-ravaged Afghanistan.
“From at this time the operations will begin on Afghanistan’s soil,” Taliban authorities spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid stated on the ceremony in feedback broadcast by Afghan state tv.
On the border ceremony in Islim Cheshma in Turkmenistan, officers on either side, together with Afghan Prime Minister Hassan Akhund, hailed the venture.
“This venture will profit not solely the economies of the nations collaborating but in addition the nations of the entire area,”
