Geography : International Contents International Connections Related Sections IR Route Maps Railway Zones Major routes, etc. (not yet ready) International Connections Q. Are there rail connections to Pakistan from India? [2/99] Before the partition of the subcontinent, there used to be several trains running across what is now the India-Pakistan border. Today, there is only one active rail connection, and the others are in disuse or have been dismantled. See below for updates! Note: [6/02] Since the rise in tensions between India and Pakistan since Dec. 2001, even the existing services have been intermittent. Note: [1/03] With continuing hostility between the two countries, there seems to be no prospect of the international service ever resuming. The latest reports are that Pakistan has dismantled the portion of track leading from Wagah to the Zero Line (the international border), so through running is in fact not possible right now. On the Indian side, a few DMU services still run to Attari from Amritsar. Also, the Frontier Mail (now renamed the Golden Temple Mail) on WR used to go all the way up to Peshawar during the Raj days and that's why it was named the "Frontier" Mail.

56. Turkmenistan: Neutrality Policy Sensible But Not Credible But this has not yet happened. Merry says that turkmenistan's geography as much as its policy accounts for its difficulties. http://www.rferl.org/nca/features/2000/03/F.RU.000331134434.html

Turkmenistan: Neutrality Policy Sensible But Not Credible By Beatrice Hogan Turkmenistan has recently reaffirmed its policy of neutrality in a document issued to member states of the United Nations. It has pledged to not take sides in regional disputes and chart an independent course in energy policy. But regional analysts say that Turkmenistan lacks the credibility to make its neutrality work. Correspondent Beatrice Hogan reports. United Nations, 31` March 2000 (RFE/RL) In a seven-page letter addressed to the UN General Assembly earlier this year, Turkmenistan declared its foreign policy of "permanent neutrality" for the 21st century. Though Turkmenistan has been officially neutral since 1995, the document represents its most comprehensive foreign policy statement to date. The People's Council of Turkmenistan ratified the new foreign policy on December 27, 1999 one day before it extended Saparmurat Niyazov's rule for life. Turkmenistan's foreign policy, the document states, reflects the president's "ideas and practical activities." The document explains how Turkmenistan plans to use its neutral status to promote peace in the region, to attract new foreign investors, and to advance social, political and economic reforms. So far, Turkmenistan has avoided military and political alliances and it plans to respond only to humanitarian calls in the future.

Back to NIE Guide to the Middle East Afghanistan Under nearly constant warfare for the past 22 years, the landlocked Central Asian nation successfully fought off a nine-year invasion from the Soviet Union in 1989. Shortly thereafter, the rebel groups, or mujahadin, began fighting each other, culminating in a civil war that is still underway. The Taliban, a group of Islamic fundamentalists, controls 90% of Afghanistan, including the capital of Kabul. The allow Osama bin Laden, a former mujahadin soldier, to set up camp in Afghanistan as their "guest." Pakistan Afghanistan's neighbor to the east, Pakistan was the United States' primary ally in Central Asia during the Cold War. Pakistan has been engaging in sporadic warfare with India for more than 40 years over the province of Kashmir, which each nation claims. Pakistan last made news in 1998, when it detonated a series of nuclear devices to match India's atomic capabilities. The subsequent international sanctions resulting from the tests have left Pakistan economically weakened. Now the leadership must balance a desire to assist the United States with the resulting backlash from Pakistani Islamic militants, who support the Taliban.
