Saudi-Pakistan Defense Pact

September 24 , 2025 15 hrs 0 min 23 0
  • Saudi Arabia and Pakistan have signed a mutual defence agreement declaring that any aggression against one will be treated as an aggression against both.
  • The pact formalises long-standing military ties, with Pakistan historically training Saudi forces and Saudi Arabia providing financial support, including for Pakistan’s nuclear program.
  • Saudi Arabia’s move indicates a diversification of its alliances, especially as normalization with Israel stalls post the October 2023 Gaza conflict.
  • Pakistan seeks to strengthen its role as a regional security provider while securing financial backing from the Gulf.
