A week before the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, India had made a big deal with Iran. Under which the management of Chabahar port was given to India for 10 years. PM Modi expressed grief over the demise of Resi and said that his contribution in strengthening India-Iran relations will always be remembered.
Iran is in mourning after the death of its President Ibrahim Raisi and Foreign Minister in a helicopter crash. A helicopter carrying Iranian President Raisi crashed in Iran's East Azerbaijan province on Sunday evening. When rescue teams reached the wreckage on Monday morning, everyone in the helicopter was dead. Meanwhile, after the death of Iran's President and Foreign Minister, the eyes of the whole world are fixed. Given its close ties with Iran and India, New Delhi is also keeping a close eye on the developments. This accident will have a deep impact on the politics of West Asia.
What will be the impact on India?
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Rai's demise that he was 'saddened and shocked' by the demise of Iranian President Ebrahim Rai. He wrote on Twitter, 'His contribution in strengthening India-Iran bilateral relations will always be remembered. My heartfelt condolences to his family and the people of Iran. India stands with Iran in this hour of grief. Raisi's death comes after a historic agreement between New Delhi and Tehran on the management of Chabahar port.
The deal gives India the right to operate Chabahar for the next 10 years, giving it access to trade in Afghanistan and Central Asia. After this deal, America had warned India of sanctions, to which the Indian Foreign Minister responded bluntly. Jaishankar said that this port will benefit the entire region and America should not take a narrow stance in this matter.
Relations with other countries
Iran's relations with other countries are likely to remain the same, as any decisions on the country's policies will, as before, be taken by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. On Sunday, Khamenei said that the people of Iran need not worry. The government will work without any hindrance.
