Regional Rivalries Could Jeopardize TAPI Pipeline Ambitions
Syed Fazl-e-Haider
Executive Summary:
* On August 10, Turkmenistan and Taliban-led Afghanistan signed a memorandum of understanding on the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) pipeline gas purchases, while on August 27, Afghan Herat Province Governor Sheikh Maulana Islam Jar said the province's section could be completed within two months.
* Despite the progress, renewed Pakistan-Afghanistantensions and India's concerns over dependence on Pakistan for transit raise doubts about extending TAPI beyond Afghanistan to its intended South Asian markets.
* Originally envisioned as a vehicle for regional cooperation and stability, TAPI could instead become a source of strategic leverage among Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India if regional tensions escalate.

On August 10, Turkmen Parliament Chairman Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov visited Afghanistan, where he discussed progress on the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) pipeline with Afghan Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar Akhund in a meeting held in Herat. On August 27, Afghan Herat Province Governor Sheikh Maulana Islam Jar stated that work on the local section of the TAPI gas pipeline project in Herat would be completed within two months and that the project could be commissioned soon afterward (Pajhwok, August 27). The two sides discussed progress on the 153-kilometer (95-mile) Serhetabat-Herat section of the pipeline, which stretches from the Turkmen border at Serhetabat to the Afghan province of Herat (Turkmenistan: Golden Age, August 11). During the visit, Turkmenistan and Afghanistan also signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on gas purchases under the TAPI project. Under the MoU, the two sides will determine gas prices, demand levels, and distribution arrangements (Government of Afghanistan , August 10). The gas-purchase MoU was signed between Turkmenistan's state-owned Turkmengaz and Afghanistan's state-owned Afghan Gas, establishing the main terms for future gas supplies. Abdul Ghani Baradar asked Ashgabat to support the development of a gas distribution network in Herat and to create local employment through the project (AnewZ TV, August 11).
Uncertainty remains over the extension of TAPI into Pakistan and India, the project's two largest South Asian markets, despite the recent progress between Turkmenistan and Afghanistan. A gas deal between Ashgabat and Kabul could make Afghanistan the first TAPI customer to receive Turkmen gas. The much-delayed TAPI pipeline project, if completed, would connect Turkmenistan's Galkynysh gas field, one of the world's largest, with energy-hungry markets in Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan (News.az, September 12, 2024; The Times of Central Asia, August 28).
Envisaged in the early 1990s, the TAPI pipeline has been delayed for decades, primarily because of security concerns surrounding its route through Afghanistan and, more recently, broader regional tensions. The project involves construction of a 1,800-kilometer (1,118-mile) pipeline running from the Galkynysh gas field in Turkmenistan through Afghanistan and Pakistan to Fazilka, India, near the Pakistan-India border, with a planned capacity to transport 33 billion cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas annually (Business Turkmenistan, August 23, 2022; South Asian Voices, November 6, 2024).
In 2014, the estimated cost of the pipeline was $10 billion. The project was launched in 2018, but the construction stalled amid security risks in Afghanistan (Pakistan Today, January 18, 2022). After the Taliban returned to power in 2021, its administration expressed renewed interest in reviving the project. In 2022, the Taliban government dedicated 30,000 troops to security coverage in a move to assure security of the pipeline traversing Afghan territory. In September 2024, work on the Serhetabat-Herat section officially resumed (Pakistan Today, January 18, 2022; Turkmen Portal, September 11, 2024).
A fully operational TAPI pipeline will have an estimated capacity of 14 bcm of gas supply annually to Pakistan and India each, with a smaller allocation of 5 bcm to Afghanistan. Turkmenistan, which follows a strategy of diversifying gas exports, is willing to supply gas to Afghanistan even as uncertainty persists over Pakistan's and India's participation in the project. By supplying gas to Afghanistan through the TAPI pipeline, Turkmenistan wants not only to demonstrate the viability of this transnational project but also to attract additional demand from South Asian markets. Ashgabat sees Afghanistan as another export market, even even if initial TAPI sales remain limited (The Times of Central Asia, August 28).
A gas-supply deal through the TAPI pipeline between Turkmenistan and Afghanistan is yet to be concluded, despite periodic claims by Turkmen and Afghan officials that work is progressing rapidly. The pace of work on the Serhetabat-Herat section remains limited. Gas pricing, supply volumes, and other key commercial terms have yet to be finalized between the two sides for the first section of the TAPI pipeline (Eurasianet, August 12). Abdul Ghani Baradar called for an agreement on gas pricing under the TAPI project. "A long-term agreement should be concluded, contain simplified conditions and include a flexible mechanism for reviewing the agreement," said an Afghan government statement (Trend News Agency, August 11).
Beyond Afghanistan, security remains a major obstacle to transporting Turkmen gas to Pakistan and India. Although the Taliban government has provided security guarantees for the pipeline's passage through Afghanistan, Pakistan and Afghanistan are currently engaged in heightened tensions over cross-border militancy. A surge in terrorist attacks by Afghanistan-based militants against Pakistan has triggered repeated clashes along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, prompting Islamabad to close its border with Afghanistan in October 2025. Relations between Pakistan and India are also deeply adversarial and deteriorated further following a military clash in May 2025. Given the regional security environment, extending TAPI from Afghanistan into Pakistan and then India faces significant security and geopolitical obstacles (The Times of Central Asia, October 23, 2025). New Delhi is also wary of depending on Pakistan for gas supplies delivered through TAPI, as such dependence could give Islamabad leverage during a future bilateral crisis. India fears that Pakistan could disrupt gas supplies during a conflict (The Economic Times, September 17, 2024).
The TAPI pipeline project was envisaged as a peace initiative for regional cooperation and stability. It could, however, be used as a weapon by Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India to settle scores against each other should hostilities break out in the region.

Trump Administration's Plan To Politicize More Than $1 Trillion in Federal Funding Would Threaten U.S. Innovation
Washington, D.C. -- A sweeping Trump administration proposal to rewrite the rules governing more than $1 trillion in annual federal funding would inject politics into grantmaking, weaken independent scientific research, and threaten American innovation and economic growth, according to a new analysis from the Center for American Progress.
The Office of Managementand Budget's (OMB) proposed rule would give political appointees greater authority over federal grant decisions, including requiring senior appointees to assess whether awards advance the president's policy priorities and treating scientific peer review as merely "advisory." CAP's analysis warns that the changes would replace independent, expert-driven decision-making with political considerations across federal grantmaking.
"For decades, independent federal research has helped power American innovation, create jobs, develop lifesaving treatments, and keep the United States at the forefront of scientific discovery," said Ryan Mulholland, senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and co-author of the analysis. "Politicizing science will make America less healthy, less prosperous, and less innovative."
"Cutting grants for health, environmental, biotechnology, and basic science research would stall innovation, delay treatments for diseases such as cancer, shrink the economy, and threaten jobs for young scientists," said Jill Rosenthal, director of public health policy at the Center for American Progress and co-author of the analysis.
Among the analysis's key findings:
* The rule would politicize more than $1 trillion in annual federal funding. The proposal would subject grants, cooperative agreements, and other federal financial assistance across the government to new, politically driven requirements.
* Political appointees could override independent scientific review. The proposal would require senior appointees to review whether grant awards advance the president's priorities while reducing the role of long-standing peer-review processes that rely on scientific expertise.
* The changes could weaken a major engine of U.S. economic growth. Federal research and development has historically generated estimated returns of 140 to 210 percent and helped spur technologies ranging from the internet and smartphones to advanced batteries and lifesaving medicines.
* Federal health research supports hundreds of thousands of jobs. National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding supported more than 410,000 jobs and nearly $93 billion in economic activity in fiscal year 2023. One estimate found that cuts to NIH funding could ultimately result in $8 trillion in lost health benefits.
* The proposal would create new barriers to scientific collaboration and communication. Researchers could face additional restrictions on international partnerships, conference participation, scientific organizations, publication costs, and the communication of findings to the public.
* The proposed rule would have a chilling effect on diversity of intellectual thought and research, gutting research that supports opportunities to improve health and well-being for all Americans.
* The proposal has faced overwhelming opposition. Nearly 500,000 comments were submitted during the 45-day public comment period, and an analysis of more than 50,000 publicly submitted comments found that approximately 94 percent opposed the changes. Forty-seven senators also warned that the proposal exceeds OMB's legal authority and infringes on Congress' spending powers.

About 1 in 10 Americans Are in Poverty, and Implementation of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act Will Likely Increase That
Washington, D.C. -- The official poverty rate fell from 2024 to 2025, while the supplemental poverty rate remained statistically unchanged. Newly released 2025 data serve as a benchmark against which to measure the impacts of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), according to an analysis from the Center for American Progress examining newly released U.S.Census Bureau data.
The analysis finds that the official poverty rate fell to 10.2 percent, or 34.5 million people, in 2025, while the supplemental poverty measure remained steady at 13.1 percent, or nearly 44.4 million people. The supplemental poverty measure--which accounts for the impact of programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) as well as expenses, including housing, medical care, and child care--provides a fuller picture of families' economic well-being.
"Millions of families are already struggling to keep up with the rising cost of basic necessities," said Kennedy Andara, a policy analyst on the Economic Policy team at CAP and co-author of the analysis. "Basic needs programs, such as SNAP and Social Security, keep millions of Americans out of poverty. The OBBBA's cuts to SNAP, Medicaid, and other social safety net programs make it harder for families to put food on the table, access health care, and afford the basic necessities."
The analysis finds:
* Different measures of poverty rates diverged in 2025. The official poverty rate fell to 10.2 percent, or 34.5 million people, in 2025, while the supplemental poverty measure remained statistically unchanged at 13.1 percent, or nearly 44.4 million people.
* Further cuts threaten families' access to food and health care. As the OBBBA's cuts to SNAP and Medicaid take effect, the number of households struggling with food insecurity and a lack of health insurance is expected to increase.
* Safety net programs kept millions of Americans out of poverty. Under the supplemental poverty measure, Social Security lifted 28.8 million people out of poverty in 2025 and was the nation's most effective anti-poverty program. Refundable tax credits, including the earned income tax credit and the refundable portion of the child tax credit, had the next-largest effect, lifting 6.1 million people out of poverty--followed by SNAP, which lifted 3.1 million people out of poverty.
* SNAP participation has already fallen sharply. According to U.S. Department of Agriculture administrative data, SNAP participation declined by nearly 2.4 million people between the enactment of the OBBBA in July 2025 and December 2025--and by roughly 5 million between July 2025 and May 2026. About 1.2 million are estimated to be children in the 25 states that reported data on child participation.
* Uninsurance rates remained statistically unchanged in 2025. The number of people without insurance in 2025 was 26.7 million, or 7.9 percent of the total population, compared with 27 million, or 8 percent, in 2024. Medical expenses pushed nearly 7.7 million people into poverty in 2025.

CAP Analysis Urges States To Pursue the Long Game on Energy Affordability
Washington, D.C. -- As electricity costs rise, a new analysis from the Center for American Progress shows how the most successful responses by state officials are those that protect consumers today while continuing to invest in energy efficiency and clean energy resources that lower bills over time.
The analysis highlights states such as Rhode Island and Massachusetts, along with Washington, D.C.,that have recently rejected or reversed proposals to scale back energy efficiency investments, recognizing that short-term cuts to cost-effective investments can come at the expense of long-term affordability.
Rather than sacrificing savings from efficiency investments for the sake of immediate relief, states should pair long-term investments with policies that simultaneously protect ratepayers in the short term. This could include offering innovative financing for energy efficiency programs and making artificial intelligence (AI) data centers pay their fair share and cover the costs of efficiency and grid upgrades.
The analysis finds that states do not have to choose between near-term affordability and long-term savings. The most durable affordability strategy pairs immediate bill relief with continued investment in the resources that lower energy costs over time.

New CAP Analysis Finds Gender Wage Gap Narrowed in 2025, While Affordability Challenges Deepen for Women
Washington, D.C. -- The gender wage gap narrowed in 2025, as Americans continue to grapple with rising costs for groceries, health care, child care, utilities, and other household necessities, according to a new analysis from the Center for American Progress.
The analysis, released following new annual income data from the U.S. Census Bureau, finds that women workingfull time, year-round earned 84 cents for every dollar earned by men in 2025, narrowing the gap by 3 cents compared with 2024. Women working full time, year-round earned a median annual income of $60,760--$11,620 less than men.
Among all women workers, including those working part time or part year, women earned 78 cents for every dollar earned by men, representing an annual earnings gap of $13,760.
"While the wage gap narrowed for most women, there were still disparities. For Black women working full time, year round, the gap widened by 1 cent. Women are a cornerstone of the U.S. workforce, but they continue to earn less than men while facing the same rising costs for housing, groceries, gas, and other essentials," said Sara Estep, an economist at the Center for American Progress and co-author of the analysis. "The gender wage gap translates directly into less money for not just women, but also their families to cover everyday expenses, build savings, and achieve long-term financial security."
The analysis finds:
* Women working full time, year-round earned 84 cents for every $1 earned by men in 2025, narrowing the wage gap by 3 cents compared with 2024.
* Women working full time, year-round earned $11,620 less annually than men, while the earnings gap among all women workers was $13,760 less.
* Black and Hispanic women continued to experience some of the largest wage gaps. For every dollar earned by white, non-Hispanic men working full time, year-round, Black women earned 64 cents, Hispanic women earned 60 cents, white women earned 81 cents, and Asian women earned 99 cents.
* Progress toward closing the gender wage gap has remained slow. If the gap for full-time, year-round workers continues on the same trajectory seen from 2000 through 2025, women would not reach equal pay for another 45 years, or until 2071.
* The wage gap compounds broader affordability pressures. Women already play a disproportionate role in managing day-to-day household finances and are more likely than men to report that family expenses and monthly bills stand in the way of their financial progress.

America Must Win the AI Race and Protect National Security
September 15, 2026
WASHINGTON, D.C.-- The America First Policy Institute (AFPI) released the following statement from Michael Faulkender, AFPI's co-chair of Economy and Trade Policy and chair of AI and Emerging Technology, on the need to protect America's leadership in artificial intelligence while addressing legitimate national-security risks through existing authorities.
America is the greatest technology power on earth and must remainso. The President already has clear authority to oversee the artificial intelligence industry. Existing tools, including the voluntary framework established in Executive Order 14409 , can create a CFIUS-style review process for new AI models.
This offers a practical way to address national-security risks, limit harms, and constrain bad actors while still winning geopolitically, economically, and militarily. These authorities can also require embedded auditing, which the industry has recently embraced. AFPI research confirms that legitimate national-security risks should be met with decisive action through these existing tools, led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
Much of the anti-AI campaign is a foreign influence operation, led primarily by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Claims about data center water use, for instance, have been disproved by AFPI's research. The President's Ratepayer Protection Pledge ensures that data centers benefit local communities by upgrading energy infrastructure and training workers. When communities voluntarily host them, the results are clear: high-paying jobs and lower property-tax burdens from strong local revenues.
The choice is simple: America can win the AI race - and realize major economic benefits along the way - or cede the future to Beijing.
