Business owners in Pakistan are getting impatient for a chance to finally trade goods and oil along their long shared border with Iran.
Pakistan’s business community is growing impatient for a resolution that would reopen trade opportunities along the long border with Iran, where merchants are waiting to resume exchanges in goods and oil if the fighting ends, according to a monitored public feed.
