WI after 9/11 relations between USA and Iran improve.

Indians build Chabahar Port in Iran and that is used to funnel supplies to afghanistan

Pakistan is not the major route to sustain the NATO war in afgnaistan

How will this impact the politics of afghanistan and the course of the war ?
 
The Taliban would be able to smuggle a lot more from the Pashtun area of Pakistan which would make things worse for the US

But a friendly iran will likely help control the insurgency from spreading outside the pashtun areas

maybe if US plays its cards right it can use iran and india to put pressure on pak's both borders to discourage them from supporting taliban ?
 
Building a modern port plus road infrastructure is a decade long process. Going to have to rely on existing Iranian ports.
