"The Islamabad government selected a consortium led by IBIC of China to arrange financing of the Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline project within 12 months in a move to finish the project as soon as possible and start importing Iranian gas supplies by December 2014."
The US has recently intensified pressures on Islamabad to force it to give up the project with Iran. US Ambassador to Islamabad Cameron Munter held a meeting with President Asif Ali Zardari earlier this month to dissuade him from continuing with this project, proffering the gas line from Turkmenistan in its stead.
In response, the Pakistani president turned down the US demand for a halt in Islamabad gas pipeline project with Iran, saying that his country would accelerate the project instead."
