Tajikistan and Iran have signalled their intention to improve ties between them. While Iran has “not been prepared to accept” newly arrived IRPT exiles, according to the party’s leader, Kabiri, it also has not been willing to denounce the IRPT (Tansim News, August 12, 2018). The two countries are also working together on a plan for the construction of an oil pipeline from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan into Pakistan. However, both countries have appointed new ambassadors this year in an attempt to rebuild diplomatic and trade relations, while their respective presidents met cordially at the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia last month.
