Iran will remain a crucial ally for India, should the NATO forces in Afghanistan choose to withdraw. The most important symbol of this strategic partnership is the Zaranj-Delaram highway that India is building in Afghanistan, which will link that landlocked country to the Iranian port of Chahbahar. When completed, this project will erode Pakistan's ability to deny Indian exports access to Afghanistan and end Pakistan's ability to blackmail its landlocked northern neighbour.
