Pakistani Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Sadiq said on Thursday that the Iran-Pakistan-India (IPI) gas pipeline project is moving towards "final stage" of its implementation.
"The direction of the project is positive," said Sadiq at a weekly news briefing.
The 7.5-billion-dollar IPI gas pipeline project, which has been under discussions since 1994, is to deliver natural gas from Iran to Pakistan and India.
Last month, the long-stalled talks on the gas pipeline project made a breakthrough when Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made whistle-stop visits to Pakistan and India.
The three countries are expected to ink agreements on the IPI project soon. Source: Xinhua
