 Iran slaps Pakistan with 'final notice' over unfinished gas pipeline

ISLAMABAD -- Iran has slapped Pakistan with a final notice to finish its part of a cross-border gas pipeline or face international arbitration, and possibly billions of dollars in fines.
 
Iran has said it spent $2 billion building its 1,150-kilometer share of the pipeline, inaugurated in 2013, but Pakistan's portion remains unbuilt due to U.S. sanctions against Tehran over its nuclear program.
