China to built Pak-Iran natural gas pipeline
As Iran is about to sign a nuclear deal, Pakistan will also get the benefit of that in shape of Pak-Iran natural gas pipeline which is expected to be built by China.
According to Wall Street Journalist, the agreement of building the pipeline will be signed when Chinese president Xi Jinping will pay a visit to Pakistan.
The pipeline would amount to an early benefit for both Pakistan and Iran from the framework agreement reached earlier this month between Tehran and the U.S. and other world powers to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
The U.S. had previously threatened Pakistan with sanctions if it went ahead with the project.
Dubbed the “Peace Pipeline,” the project will further bolster improving ties between Pakistan and Iran, which had been uneasy neighbors for decades as a result of Pakistan’s ties to Iran’s long-term adversaries, Saudi Arabia and the U.S.
“We’re building it,” Pakistani Petroleum Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi told The Wall Street Journal, referring to the pipeline. “The process has started.”
Pakistan has been negotiating for months behind the scenes for China to build the Pakistani portion of the pipeline, which will cost up to $2 billion.
Tehran says that its 560-mile (900-kilometer) part of the pipeline from an Iranian gas field is complete. Iran has long pressed Pakistan to build its half of the scheme.

This is the reason why US is in a rush to make peace with IRAN. The Chinese and Russian international diplomatic strategies is to be friendly and helpful with other countries and respecting their differences.
US international diplomatic strategies is to impose by force US values to people that don’t want to live by US values, therefore creating chaos and hatred toward the US.
US is now changing is international diplomatic strategies by imitating China and Russia. This is why the US is make peace with Cuba and Venezuela.
This come down to access of the last renaming oil. China and Russia have been better at securing oil then US.
Expect US to dump Israel and put sanctions on them in an attempt to look friendly toward Arabs nation.

Brought to you by the same country that made Chinese drywall and everything that fails after a year.

Rodster, they also built the fastest super computer, a missile system that can take down a satellite and have been in the diplomatic business for 5,000+ years. If you think American products are so good, buy only American, if you can find any.
BTW: How many bullet trains does the Us have today? ”
“China Bullet Train is the fastest in the world. With the new line from Beijing to Shanghai, China now has more than 91,000 km of railway lines – China has the world’s longest HSR network with approximately 8,358 km of routes in service as of January 2011, including 2,197 km of rail lines with top speeds of 350 km/h. The Bullet trains have transported 600 million passengers since their introduction on April 18th, 2007…”

When this pipeline is completed by China (not the U.S.), the dream of an American controlled Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India gas pipeline will probably bite the dust. The Yolotin-Osman gas in southeastern Turkmenistan will probably all go to China, since it’s going there already as is most of the current oil production in Kazhakstan. Thus the U.S.’s blood shed in Afghanistan, in part to control the proposed TAPI pipeline corridor, will come to nought. It appears that the U.S.’s dreams of capturing central Asia’s oil and gas production may be coming to an end. Geographic realities seem to be ruling the day. At some future time, we may have to stay on our side of the two oceans that surround and protect us.

I do, every time I can. Chinese trinkets and consumer goods are utter crap.

Makster, poor guy, trying to defend his super hero China. Makster, China has quality issues plain and simple. So does the rest of the world. Yet, it is China that pumps out the cheap shit killing the earth then quickly ending up in landfills. So what if they produce some quality items. Let’s hope they do with all the corporate theft that has occurred. So much of China’s technology is copied and stolen. Grow up Makster your super heroes are not perfect like you let on constantly.

China is by no means the savior of the earth or even of the world’s economy. However, the U.S. is in deep trouble as a result of its own making. In 1953 it deposed the only democracy Iran has ever had so that our oligarchs could control its oil. Moreover, the American policy in the MENA, as elsewhere, has always been the same as the old Roman “divide et impera.” Neither the State Department nor the Yankee citizenry can understand that, historically, “democracy” has never been the preference of mankind. Monarchy/dictatorship has been. We are now returning to that preference even here: hence the Church of Obama Worship and the lurch toward Neo-Cæsaropapism led by a combo of groups occupying the propaganda pulpits.
Let Iran get the bomb. They would not dare to attack Israel, since they know that that would be the instant end of Iran as habitable stretch of land for the next thousand years. The mere existence of Persian nukes would, of course, vastly diminish the prestige of Saudism and its cretinous cult, even though the U.S. would continue to prop up that corpse.
And finally, it must be remembered that America is in civilizational decline. The reasons are too many to list here, but the fact is clear to everyone outside the U.S. and even to a minuscule minority inside it. What with Peak Everything, biospheric degradation, etc., we cannot hold on to the illusion of our divine right to maintain a stranglehold on the globe forever. It is time to face reality.
