Afghanistan, Iran Ink Fuel Agreement
Tolo News
2 months ago

Afghanistan and Iran signed an agreement to import one million tonnes of fuel annually, Iranian media reports.

 


The agreement was signed between Afghan Minister of Commerce and Industry Anwar-ul-Haq Ahadi and managing director of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company Ali Reza Zeighami on Monday, the report said.

 

Iran will export products including gas oil, jet fuel and gasoline to Afghanistan.

 

The agreement comes as in 2010 Iran had blocked Afghan fuel tankers and saying they are provided to US and other Nato-led troops in Afghanistan, but re-opened later.

 

About one third of Afghanistan's fuel needs, imported from Russia, Turkmenistan and Iraq, transit through Iran.
