💢 Iran has received an invitation to join the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement signed by Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan, according to Mehdi Rahimi, head of the Iranian parliament’s Khaneh Mellat news agency. He told Al Mayadeen that Tehran is currently reviewing the proposal.
The agreement was signed in Mecca on August 7 by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. It establishes a collective-defense principle under which an attack on one member is considered an attack on all.
Rahimi said regional countries are increasingly seeking their own “regional security umbrella,” describing the development as a victory for Iran, which he said has long advocated such an arrangement. The reported invitation has not yet been publicly confirmed by Iran’s Foreign Ministry or the three signatories.
