#china #project #india #russia #iran #oil #gas Russia and Iran have had a hostile relationship over the past few decades. Driven by China and members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, relations between the two countries began to improve rapidly and cooperation in the oil and gas fields began. Unfortunately, Russia and Iran face some difficulties with maritime transport. To meet this challenge, Russia has had to rely on rail and pipelines to deliver energy to Iran, which is complex and costly. Therefore, in order to simplify transportation processes and reduce costs, Russia and Iran plan to jointly build an energy corridor in 2022. However, just as the project was about to start. Not only did India openly oppose the project, it also claimed that the project would disrupt Asia's energy structure and tried to block its implementation. Fortunately, things have changed so far. On November 4, 2023, the Council of Heads of Government of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization member states was held in Kyrgyzstan. Russia, Iran and China have reached a consensus and not only agree to jointly build this Central Asian energy corridor, but also plan to further improve it. So, once this energy corridor is completed, how will it affect these three countries? And why does India oppose this project?
