Saudi Arabia and Pakistan have signed a historic Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement, pledging to treat an attack on either country as an attack on both. The pact, which may include all military means, was endorsed by Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir. The agreement comes amid rising Gulf tensions after an Israeli airstrike in Doha. It could have significant regional implications, potentially involving a Pakistani nuclear umbrella over Saudi Arabia, affecting Israel, the US, China, and India’s strategic calculations. India is monitoring the development closely to reassess its security and diplomatic priorities in the Middle East and South Asia.
