#4 Turkey, Iran, and Pakistan once created the Regional Cooperation and Development agency to work together to strengthen the economy of all three nations. The Mullahs backed out after they took over in 1979. I wouldn't be surprised to see them try to re-create that agency, and to work with Turkey and Pakistan again. Iran needs both nations for economic reasons, and would love to strengthen military ties - expecially any that would shut out the US. My guess, the answer to Jack's question is "Yes". |
