Gwadar port is playing a significant role in Afghan trade and is the only mean for Afghanistan to import and export their products and goods. China has invested a huge amount in the construction of Gwadar port, approximated around 250 million dollars. According to the CEPC agreement, China will get the 91% of earnings generated by the Gwadar port through trade for the next 40 years. Currently, the Afghan trade is the only source of income for Gwadar port. Hence, Pak-Afghan trade is essential for the operations to run smoothly at the dock and to pay off debt to China.
