In a landmark defense agreement, Saudi Arabia will now be protected by Pakistan's nuclear shield, following a historic deal between the two nations. This unprecedented pact, announced after high-level talks in Islamabad, signifies a major shift in the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East and South Asia.
The agreement outlines a framework for military cooperation, including joint exercises, technology sharing, and strategic support. The most significant element of the deal is the mutual defense clause, which commits Pakistan to providing its nuclear umbrella to the Saudi kingdom in the event of a foreign threat.
