A Russian delegation headed by Deputy Minister for
Energy Yury Sentyurin has arrived in Islamabad to discuss financing of the
proposed Iran-Pakistan (IP) gas pipeline with Pakistani Secretary of Petroleum
and Natural Resources Ejaz Chaudhary.
Iran has already completed the construction of the pipeline on its
side and has committed to provide $500 million in cash and the actual
pipes, gas compressors and block valves to help finance the construction of the
pipeline on the Pakistani side.
Pakistan is wooing Russia and China to
participate in the project to reduce the pressure of being the only partner of
Iran, which is under international economic sanctions.
Sentyurin is expected to announce that Russian companies will
construct the pipeline but they have asked the Pakistanis to be awarded the
contract on sole-source basis, setting aside the required international bidding
regulations.
China is also studying to become the Engineering Procurement
Construction and Commissioning (EPCC) contractor to the project.

The Russians will benefit the most from this still born venture.
IF and that is a big IF the construction goes ahead Russia will demand a huge part of the pie in Iran's gas sales.Pakistan on the other hand cannot be trusted because they are a beggar nation and is infested with Taliban terrorists.
The return in investment will be an extremely long term issue and politics is changing in the middle east which means that the present system in Iran will not be here to reap its rewards.
Strange,I've noticed a few regime supporters seem to come on together or not at all.
That only explains there could be only one person with multiple accounts.LOL!
And Russia will ask for the blood of Iranian people in return.
This is what happens when you have mullahs and their minions in power.
