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

[El Sidd]

The newly crowned BD government has all the rights to use any and everything to strike a better deal with India.

You’re right and I agree with you. But that’s exactly the issue — what’s the point of this pact if it isn’t basically about protecting Saudi Arabia from Iran or Israel? Türkiye and Pakistan can handle their own regional threats without anyone’s help. We’ve already proven that.

So when you look at it realistically, this pact mostly benefits the Saudis. They get political cover, military reassurance, and a sense of “collective defence” they never had before. Meanwhile, Türkiye and Pakistan don’t actually gain anything strategic. We don’t need a treaty to defend ourselves, and we don’t need a treaty to help each other either — history already showed that.

If the Saudis want Bangladesh in, they will be in.

Possibly Saudi financial assistance to buy toys.

And of course Bangladeshi commitment towards Saudi security.

Would be mutually beneficial.

The other aspect as I mentioned is if India creates problems for Pakistan due to her husband, a strengthened Bangladesh would divert Indian resources.

It works out well bros.

AND if this is indeed the case, expect more weapons purchases from Bangladesh than what has traditionally seen seen.
