President Ahmadinejad:Gas pipeline to Pakistan will be finished by 2014

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said a 560-mile long, $7.5 billion dollar gas pipeline from southern Iran to its border with Pakistan would be finished on time despite political and financial pressures. Washington has pressured Pakistan to drop the project, while investors have been scared off by fears it could be affected by sanctions targeting Iran over the country’s uranium enrichment program.
