Something went wrong!
Hang in there while we get back on track
Afghanistan and Iran have been at loggerheads in
recent months over the Helmand River and its water.
With the region grappling with a punishing drought
for the third year running, the two neighbouring
countries have been locked in a tense melee over
shared transboundary rivers. While Iran seeks to
assert its rights over water from the Helmand River
based on the 1973 Afghan-Iranian Helmand River
Water Treaty, Afghanistan maintains that there is
simply not enough water to provide Iran with a greater
amount. AAN guest author, Mohammad Assem Mayar,
looks into what has driven the recent dispute over
water between these two countries and provides
insights into the future prospects of water relations
between the two nations.
