Pakistan's Armed Forces Spokesperson Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry has clarified that the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement between Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan is purely defensive and does not have an offensive nature. The pact aims to strengthen joint deterrence and complement Pakistan's strategic relationship with China. It formalizes longstanding defense ties among the three nations and is not intended to compete with other alliances. Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has stated that the pact will be activated if Saudi Arabia faces aggression.
