Thats the way to go, develop friendly, business oriented ties with all the neighboring countries. Pakistan can benefit alot from Iran, specially in industrial sector. Iran has a very well developed auto industry, they design, and completely manufacture 100% their own cars, while Pakistan is decades behind in terms of auto technology but Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, India, China all started assmebling cars at around same time, all of these countries except Pakistan, manufacture their 100% own brands of cars now and much cheaper prices.
