South Cyprus and Greece might join...
...simply bcuz South Cypress has no backing from anyone(like NATO type) other than just Greece that will come to its defense. Greece is part of NATO...but bcuz of their rivalry with Turkey may join as well.
UAE and India...while they are definitely in Israel's camp. They might just hold off...
...their interests align...but I don't think the trust that is required for ur ally to come to ur aid(with actual boots on the ground type of commitment) exists to that extent between these countries.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Egypt's accession to the Mecca Agreement for Joint Defense:
— Egypt is already a natural partner for us in all matters. And I believe that in the upcoming phase, Egypt will be among us as an alliance.
— We are currently dealing with each other as if we are already members of an alliance, and relations with all countries are like this.

What does Pakistan get in return if they join a pact with Iran and Palestine? You do know if Israel feels threatened nukes will be used. Dont you think its hypocritical to live in those western nations and pay taxes to its government while criticizing Pakistan's neutrality in Iran and Palestinian matter? Military action against Israel is not the solution.

So you’re saying Pakistani Shias have self respect and honor unlike the Sunnis/Wahhabis who sold out their Kashmiri brothers in IOK just to have Sonu Nigam perform live in Lahore during Enlighted Moderation era?
Maybe you shouldn’t have let Laskhar E Jhangvi murdered those poor Iranian Air Force recruits in Pakistan in the early 90s.
No offenses to my Sunni friends - but these extremists amongst don’t have a leg to stand with their “IrAn SuPpOrT InDia” talking point.

In that regard, the Turkish Atak 2 seems like a great platform to fulfill the role, especially alongside the T-925, with similar engines as far as I could find.
But in terms of acute needs, to support the Saudis a small fleet of 15 AH-1Z helicopters can show pakistan’s commitment.besides Saudis have already ordered tens of thousands of AKPWS. The PA might as well get experience in a real world condition in dealing with UAV threats.

Pakistani news outlets really are clueless.What the Pakistan-Saudi Arabia-Turkiye defence pact is — and what it isn't
It builds on decades of strategic ties, without targeting any country, while rejecting comparisons with military blocs

Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye have formalised their longstanding strategic relationship through the newly signed "Makkah Joint Defence Agreement", a trilateral security framework that its proponents describe as a defensive arrangement aimed at strengthening collective deterrence, enhancing military cooperation and promoting regional stability.
The agreement, signed during the Makkah Al-Mukarramah Summit for Joint Defence, has prompted comparisons with military alliances such as NATO. However, according to security analysts, the pact is intended to formalise decades of existing strategic cooperation rather than create a new military bloc or offensive alliance.
A formal framework for existing ties
According to security analysts, the agreement represents the natural progression of longstanding political, military and strategic relations among the three countries.
They note that Pakistan's ties with Turkiye date back to the Khilafat Movement, while Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have maintained decades of defence, political, economic and diplomatic cooperation based on what they describe as mutual trust and shared strategic interests.
Rather than establishing an entirely new partnership, analysts say the agreement provides a formal institutional framework for cooperation that has evolved over many years.
Why now?
Security analysts argue that the agreement reflects a rapidly changing regional security environment.
They point to regional conflicts, evolving security threats and changes in the character of modern warfare as factors driving closer strategic coordination among countries that share common security interests.
According to them, the trilateral framework is intended to preserve regional stability by strengthening collective security mechanisms instead of relying on ad hoc bilateral cooperation.
What the agreement does
At its core, the agreement establishes a framework based on the principles of collective security and collective deterrence.
Security analysts say its central premise is that aggression against one member would be regarded as a threat to all three, thereby increasing the potential cost of military action and discouraging conflict through credible deterrence.
The framework also envisages expanded defence cooperation, including closer military coordination, intelligence sharing, strategic consultations, defence planning and broader institutional cooperation between the three countries.
According to analysts, pooling military capabilities and strategic coordination is intended to improve preparedness while reducing the likelihood of regional conflict.
The complementary roles of the three countries
The agreement draws on what security analysts describe as the complementary strengths of each participant.
Pakistan contributes experienced armed forces, operational expertise and strategic planning capabilities developed through decades of counterterrorism operations and conventional military preparedness.
Saudi Arabia brings economic strength, regional influence and political leadership, while Turkiye contributes an advanced defence industry, military technology and industrial capacity.
Together, analysts say, these capabilities form a balanced security architecture capable of responding to emerging regional security challenges.
Pakistan's evolving diplomatic role
Security analysts also argue that Pakistan has increasingly emerged as a regional stabiliser through its diplomatic engagement in recent regional crises.
They cite Pakistan's mediation efforts during the recent US-Iran conflict, alongside its diplomatic relations with Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Iran, China and the United States, as evidence that Islamabad is well positioned to serve as a bridge between regional and global stakeholders.
They say that this broader diplomatic role complements Pakistan's contribution to the trilateral framework.
What the agreement is not
While comparisons have been drawn with existing military alliances, security analysts reject several common characterisations of the pact.
They emphasise that the agreement is not:
Instead, they describe it as a defensive security framework designed to deter aggression, strengthen military cooperation and enhance regional stability without targeting any state.
- an offensive military alliance;
- directed against any specific country;
- a "Muslim NATO";
- a nuclear security arrangement or extended nuclear deterrence agreement; or
- a religion-based political or military bloc.
According to the analysts, the agreement is intended to reinforce self-reliance among the three partners while codifying an existing strategic relationship through a formal institutional mechanism.
A collective deterrence model
Security analysts say the credibility of the framework ultimately depends on continued political coordination among the three governments.
They argue that the leadership of Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye has consistently combined military preparedness with diplomatic engagement and strategic restraint, making the agreement a mechanism for crisis management as much as defence cooperation.
According to them, the objective is to reduce the likelihood of conflict through credible deterrence while providing a structured platform for long-term security cooperation among the three countries.
Although the agreement significantly deepens trilateral defence coordination, analysts maintain that its stated purpose is not to create a new geopolitical bloc but to institutionalise an existing strategic partnership centred on collective security, stability and regional cooperation.
