Explanation

The correct answer is A: Afghanistan.

The Peace Pipeline Agreement is a pact between Iran and Pakistan to construct a gas pipeline that would deliver natural gas from Iran to Pakistan. India was initially part of the project, but withdrew in 2009 over pricing and security issues.  Afghanistan was never involved in the agreement, although Iran invited Bangladesh to join the project in 2010.  The pipeline is also known as the IP Gas or the Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline.
