Pakistan's Mediation Role
Pakistan’s military establishment has expressed “cautious optimism” about Islamabad’s mediation between Tehran and Washington, following two visits to Iran this month by Army Chief Asim Munir, one of which was accompanied by Saudi and Turkish officials. At the same time, the joint defence agreement between Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, signed on August 7, has taken on added significance as fears of war have grown. A Pakistani spokesperson said its wording does not rule out new members joining, and that sending additional troops to Saudi Arabia would depend on developments and on a decision by the two countries’ leaderships. Pakistan reaffirmed its commitment to defending Saudi Arabia and the holy sites in Mecca and Medina, while denying involvement in the Yemen conflict.
