Mecca agreement a major defense achievement, says analyst

Political analyst Barakah Al-Hoshan declares the Mecca agreement a major defense accomplishment that bolsters global peace and security while fortifying regional stability. In an interview with Al-Ikhbariya Radio, Dr. Al-Hoshan elaborates that the agreement marks a significant milestone involving two of the region's powerhouse nations: Pakistan, a nuclear state, and Turkey, a NATO member.

He elaborates that the pact serves the interests of international peace and security in a region plagued by ongoing conflicts, explosions, and militias attempting to undermine stability. Dr. Al-Hoshan emphasizes that this defense cooperation is not aimed at any specific party but rather focuses on safeguarding the security of Saudi Arabia and regional stability.

He highlights that both Pakistan and Turkey rely on Saudi support in various aspects. Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan recently unveiled a joint defense agreement to fortify collective deterrence against any attack on any of the three nations. The pact aims to enhance joint defense against any act of aggression, with all parties considering an armed attack against one as an attack against all. It also emphasizes the need for enhanced defense cooperation among the three nations.
