- The Iran-India Chabahar deal and U.S. sanctions waiver. "I think the United States is wise to not put itself (against) many countries who are going to use this(Chabahar)route as the best route." Dr Iraj Elahi, the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to India tells StratNews Global's Amitabh P. Revi in this exclusive interaction. The envoy adds, "the U.S., I think will not do anything. I hope that at least they are wise enough. Besides, India is, a good friend of the USA. And their relations are increasing and intensifying. So what does it mean if the U.S. will impose sanctions against India, which is a close strategic partner? It it does that, it means the U.S is not reliable for anyone. If it is reliable, it should at least, consider the benefit and interest of its partner."
India signed a long-term deal with Iran this week to build and operate the Chabahar port. India Ports Global Limited will equip and operate the port for 10 years to begin with. Hours after India inked the deal, a spokesperson of the U.S. State Department warned firms doing business with Iran that they risked U.S. sanctions. At a daily briefing, Vedant Patel said, "You’ve heard us say this in a number of instances, that any entity, anyone considering business deals with Iran, they need to be aware of the potential risk that they are opening themselves up to and the potential risk of sanctions." When asked specifically whether there would be an exemption, he point-blank said, "No."
Iran-India Chabahar deal and U.S. sanctions
But in 2018, the U.S. had made an exception with respect to Chabahar. The State Department had said it was exempting certain sanctions concerning the development of Chabahar Port and its associated railway, as well as the transport of non-sanctionable goods for Afghanistan's use, citing the importance of reconstruction and economic development of Afghanistan.
The Iranian envoy in India, Dr Elahi also spoke about the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC) from Southeast Asia to Europe. He also addressed questions on Afghanistan, the road and rail network in Iran and, Gwadar as China's access to the Indian Ocean. Dr Elahi spoke about the Indian crew onboard the seized merchant ship Aries. The Ambassador also talked about the retaliation against Israel killing a top IRGC commander in Damascus and the danger of a widening of the conflict. And Israel's action in Gaza and Rafah, rapprochement with Saudi Arabia and Iran's nuclear programme. Watch the complete exclusive interview.

India trapped by iran
Henry Kissinger - 'It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal.'
and when china invades India do not expect US aide!
Amitab is really best.. he directly hits the bullseye to get informative content instead of garlanding leaders..
kind words @Olive_Chap 🙏🏾
This is so good Amitabh you conduct interviews the old fashioned way …. Very enlightening
Henry Kissinger - 'It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal.'
Tell me how many countries died fatally because of them being an American friend? China became an economic superpower by playing American friend. Japan and Europe recovered from a war-torn condition to become economic miracles within decades. The only example is Pakistan which we know how trustworthy they are friend of America.
Good to have Amitabh back. Very informative interview and tightly controlled. Dhanyavad Stratnews for this. Jai Hind🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

It's an earnest request to the citizens of the Islamic Republic of Iran to maintain and cherish the Iranian/Persian Culture as much as they can
@amritanshvyas they already do. Speak to a common Irani for hours, they won't mention religion once, unlike our next door jihadis who can't speak one sentence without it. Heck, Irani also have rainbow colored Qurans
Yeah, Persian culture does actually deserve preserving as it is nice a mixture of the appropriations from ancient Eastern Semites of Mesopotamia (Babylon, Assure, Dilmun, etc) then an added supplementary influence by Arab (Western) Semites
Iran culture is already in itself a preservation of other real genuine original cultures, thus by extension the Persian culture in itself is still arguably worthy of preservation.
Good news for you: it ain't going anywhere like all other cultures in the region, those things are sticky, too sticky actually.
Next topic.
Maybe for the first time I'm hearing an Iranian official representative referring to Israel by its name. 😂😂
nah its not that extreme image people think of
Although the US hasn't sanctioned Indian firms working on Chabahar but have done so for energy importing companies. However, firms from other countries especially Europe are hesitant to co-operate on it.
❤❤ excellent 👌👌
Great news to see you Amitabh revi.
Really great to hear the Amb. speak clearly and pointedly on all the issues.
🙏🏾 @sudeeplimaye4399 great to see you on yt comments!
Good job you guys.
After cancelling the indian firm's rail contract years ago, this latest development shows improvement in Tehran-New Delhi relations.Tehran govt maybe trying to balance their relations with india, after iranian president's visit to pakistan last week.
it has nothing to do with Iran president visiting Pakistan because ,india has been doing construction and investment in chabahar port for decade now
now we India iran just signed operation rights for 10 yrs
@@rakeshbarman3486 10 years?for a portion of chabahar port,where india only can have connectivity by ships.This is just like China, who will also operate part of the same chabahar port.
But china has lease of Gwadar till 2059, which I am sure can be extended, especially if China does dredging and make submarine docks there.
That will get rid of China's nightmare if foreign powers band together and block south china sea.Like india, usa will not like Gwadar to become fully operational.
@@alikhan-ri5ye dude pakistan is not interested to give any route to india anyway so we made our own route through chahbahar, our energy needs is crucial when our economy is growing, we need to find some way to reach oil rich nation and for our exports to reach central Asia, thats why india for decades has been investing in chahbahar construction, it became slow for few years but now we got 10 yrs management rights , it will benefit us ,
there is no military component to it btw , it mainly focuses on energy trade and other export product trade, we can reach Afghanistan easily by thus route cuz Iranians have built railways till afghan border ,but Afghanistan is not doing much in their own side to connect it properly, I guess india have to help Afghanistan building that railway link till Iran border,
and to further connect 8t to central Asia our construction companies are bidding to participate in construction of railway lines
Good catch.
India trapped by iran
Thank you for the interview. Insightful
Good informative!!
The 11th hour intervention by Russia during the renegotiation of JCPOA, then the China brokered Saudi-Iranian deal & the following war in Gaza. This sequence of events have made India-Iran interest divergent.
Amitab ji Where have you been. We miss you
@BhaskaraSG 🙏have been here only, as in working on the himalayan frontier series that takes a lot of time and effort: i never went anyway away from the channel @harshalgore just working on other projects that need a lot of time and energy th-cam.com/play/PLqG7Etq4EK6gdn7hi8ZdhABcicouIYo4X.html&si=WIZuGt4-Z3HVotBQ
Healthy Bipolar World & Peace. Say no to proxies.
Great interview 🙏
👍🏾🙏🏾 @ronny383
Great
The silence of the Indian commentators on the killing of a retired UN officer, and in general the appaling silence to an ongoing genocide shows that we lack a spine and will always be slaves
I believe, there was some discussion on bringing Chinese equipment. Which India should should still hold.
ایران و هند در طول تاریخ همیشه بهترین رابطه و دوستی را داشتن هند یک دوست قابل اعتماد برای ایران است 🇮🇷♥️🇮🇳
😂😂😂
Yeah ❤
I like it when indians so lovingly and politely talk about islam and muslims, when they speak to afghans and iranians and other middle eastern countries.So genuine.I guess it is because congress cant give muslims of these countries the gold of indian hindus.
You do realise that the opinion of a "certain politician" is not the opinion of Billion+ Indians
@@amritanshvyas Come on, "One politican"?
He is supported by 80% of hindus who line up to hear him and queue up to vote for him.
@@AhmedAli-wt2qh What are you on about? Please stop the rhetoric.
The BJP garnered ONLY 44% of the Hindu votes in the 2019 elections. Please get your facts checked.
Besides, I'm a Hindu, and I fully embrace my Muslim brothers, and there are millions of Hindus like me.
STOP WATCHING DIVISIVE AGENDA DRIVEN MEDIA FOR GOD'S SAKE!
Things are completely different on the ground.
@@AhmedAli-wt2qh yes 80% hindus are voting for him cuz he is allegedly carrying out Muslim genocide, right?? they don't care about development. infrastructure, jobs, industrialization..they just dream of Muslim genocide as per you ret@@rddds right??
@@AhmedAli-wt2qhit's not always about religion bro. It's also about incumbency factor of 60 years of congress rule which followed slow, and not so bold policies. And also one of the major factor in Indian politics is the memory of partition, history, culture,media, geopolitics etc
Elahi mera jee aye aye
Iam sorry i couldn't hold myself.🤭 Good interview Sir !!
Me too lol
India and Iran are both Civilisational States, just ignore the beef burger vendors they are going nowhere.
India should strengthen our ties with Iran. Iran and India have had ties going back centuries, we should not let the Americans dictate to us or threaten us with sanctions if we get closer to Iran.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 lmao chahbar port project banayga Nahi insha'Allah
China has full control over Gwadar and China has a foot in CHabahar.
Once Gwadar is operational, with a bit more dredging, it can be turned into a military port with submarine docks.
Through CPEC oil will reach china directly.
India's remote login into chabahar may not be as effective as china.
India uses Chabahar for trade with Russia and middle Asian countries.. Gwadar is in India's radar during war India easily ceases it for Chinese use.
chabhar wud never be successful cuz pakistan industrial output is literally insignificant
CPEC is dead, BLA is on rise
It has little to do with china. It'sabout economy. Main focus area of chabahr port is to boost trade through connectivity to afghanistan , central Asia, Russia and eastern Europe for India, that's why India and Russia r working on INSTC corridor. Come on , stop seeing others also from security lens like pak .
@@ritika5363 How can i ignore security when you are talking about afghanistan and iran and pakistan.
It is Pakistan's dream to get gas from central asian states and iran but even Pakistan cant get that.
Russia and iran and central asian states working with Pakistan too and yet, nothing to show for it.
For us the only solace is that our national wealth(little as it is), is not sinking like india did in afghanistan over the 20 years and all the indian dreams of operating chabahar may not come to any fruition either.I will wait if USA slaps sanctions and indian companies are hesitant again, just like they were during the rail project.
As a Pakistani, you sure worry more about China than you do about Pakistan. You will never find an Indian cheering for anyone else besides his own country. It seems like Pakistanis are trying to superficially live their ideal life through their rich "friends".
Ideally we’d like to live peacefully and not worry about both of you. China will always be a concern due to its size and influence. But Pakistanis and us have so much in common, we can definitely co-exist. Unfortunately there’s non-state elements in Pak who will never let us live in peace.
Failed project will fail insha'Allah sartay raho rotay raho
As u sow, so shall u reap. If u wish bad about others , u will get the same . It's karma.
@@ritika5363😂😂😂😂 burnol from Karachi Pakistan
