Turkey - Pakistan - Saudi Arabia joint defense pact

[jmaxwell_]

KSA is too weak once the west technicians are away.
Turkey is too far from India.

In fact I see more Iran to be frightened by these 3 country.

Turkey-Pakistan-BD form a direct threat for India (assuming BD accepts KSA invite) even if KSA sits it out. And in the past, the internal conflicts within India was funded by KSA through Pak.

there is even talk of Iran joining, it's to counter Israel

Let's see what happens the next time there's a skirmish on the lines of Operation Sindoor. I'd like to see how many of these treaty allies join Paxtan ?!

It's going the way previous treaties like CENTO & SEATO went. Apart from individual countries providing some material & monetary assistance to Paxtan nothing much happened.

However there exists a real danger of KSA bankrolling Turkey's massive MIC under construction which'd give Paxtan access & pose an alternative to China & the US . That ought to be worrying.

Iran is, as long as drived by Mollah, an outcast.
Israel is a threat for Iran (mainly because Iran is a threat for israel). Between Israel and Turkey there is only Syria problem. But between Israel and Pakistan ???
