Erdogan: Mecca Deal Aims Elsewhere
Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan are currently seeking mechanisms to hold an urgent meeting of the Chiefs of Staff of the three countries' armed forces, with the aim of discussing ways to support the Kingdom under the "Mecca Agreement" for joint defense, which stipulates that any attack on one party is considered an attack on all. This comes amid escalating attacks claimed by the Houthi group "Ansar Allah" against various targets in Saudi Arabia, including an attack on the Aramco company. The ministers confirmed that the agreement aims to strengthen military cooperation and defend mutual interests, emphasizing that any assistance would include information sharing and logistical support, with the possibility of broader military support depending on the level of threat. Despite the escalation, the Turkish president affirmed that the agreement is not directed against any specific country and aims to stabilize the region and promote peace, while adhering to international law principles and non-interference in internal affairs.
