No Plan to Expand Mecca Alliance: Pakistan

Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced that the historic Mecca Agreement, signed last month between Pakistan, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia, is primarily a ‘defensive military alliance’ and there are no plans for its expansion at this moment.

On Thursday (September 10), during a regular weekly briefing, the spokesperson for the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs provided this explanation in response to a question about how Pakistan would counter recent Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia under the terms of the agreement.
