- Authors
Khan, Shabir Ahmad; Takrim, Kausar; Gul, Hayat
- Abstract
The paper attempts to compare the Pak-Afghan transit trade pre and post Afghanistan-Pakistan Transit Trade Agreement (APTTA ) and argues that the conversion of Afghanistan's transit trade towards Iran during the last 3-4 years is not the after effects of APTTA alone but other factors are involved like lack of sufficient infrastructure, deteriorating law and order situation in Pakistan, the worsening relations between US/NATO due to Salala and Abbottabad incidents, high transit costs, un-necessary delay, decline in Afghanistan's imports etc. The paper also attempts to suggest recommendations for catching afghan transit trade and controlling the smuggling of transit goods at the end.
