Bangladesh Keen To Join Saudi-Pak-Turkey Defence Alliance, Says PM's Top Aide

[Master Chief]

Bangladesh should join Pakistan first, before they join the Meccah Pact.

I assume your comment is tongue in cheek! Just in case it is not....such a manoeuvre benefits neither Bangladesh nor Pakistan.

I have already cleared this part up about Turkey being a part of NATO up in my previous post.

" You can not be a member of two competing defense pacts and then hold members of your first defense pact hostage to wars of your allies, of your new defense pact.

Btw Nato Article 5 only comes into effect when a member nation is attacked.

If Turkey send its armed forces fight to against India, to fight along with Pakistan, then it is Turkey which is attacking India first and no Nato member will intervene, when India responds."

Essentially what you are trying to say up there is since Turkey is a part of NATO, now Turkey has entered into defense pact with Pakistan, hence Pakistan has become a member of NATO.

And any attack on Pakistan will be responded by NATO..which is an idiotic assumption.

You’re severely mistaken. Türkiye isn’t some “extra number” in NATO — it’s one of the alliance’s core military pillars. We’re the 2nd‑largest army, we control the Straits, we host critical NATO infrastructure, and we’re one of the few members that can actually fight and win real wars. When NATO talks about southern flank security, Black Sea access, Middle East stability, or missile defense, Türkiye is always at the centre of the conversation.

So let’s stop pretending Türkiye is some powerless spectator. If Türkiye joins a Mecca Pact and decides to pressure India, India’s nuclear threats don’t magically become “free hits.” The moment India uses nukes on a NATO member, it becomes a direct confrontation with the entire alliance. NATO isn’t going to sit there and let a non‑aligned state nuke one of its most important members. That’s not how collective security works, and every serious analyst knows it.

And this idea that India is some untouchable giant is fantasy. India has no mutual‑defense allies, no Article‑5 style guarantees, no bloc that would protect it.India has no allies or friends anywhere in the world. Not even Greece wants anything to do with you.

Türkiye is a nation with real allies, real partnerships, real strategic weight. India is a nation with mostly transactional relationships and a long list of diplomatic frictions. You’re acting like India is some global favourite when in reality it’s a country that struggles to maintain stable relations with Pakistan, China, Canada, the EU, and even its own neighbours.

So no — NATO isn’t going to let “little India” launch nukes at one of its key members. And no — Türkiye doesn’t need anyone’s permission to act in its own strategic interest.

Sure..If Turkey attacks India..Nato will defend you against Indian nukes..if the war were to go nuclear and that is even if they could defend you against SSBNs and MIRVed ICBMs.

Even though NATO article 5 clearly states that a member nation has to be attacked first for article 5 to come into affect.

Just like how entire NATO is currently fighting Iran after US lanched a war against it.?

But sure Turkey is more important member of NATO than US itself.

That's some heavy odds stacked against you, if I were a betting man, I wouldn't bet the existence of my nation like that.

But who knows ..Turkish lives mean very little to kids like you.

Bur tell you what ..Why don't you come and test your little theory and deploy your armed forces in Pakistan for a start and see who in Nato supports your stance.

That will give your a litmus test of weather you should be betting the existence of your country so cavalierly.
