The announcement of a comprehensive defense pact between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia last month represents more than another bilateral agreement in a complex regional security matrix.
The deal is framed as a response to mounting insecurity in the Gulf amid Israel’s unrestrained military posturing across Lebanon, Syria, and the broader Middle East. But beneath the surface, the implications of the new defense pact are more expansive. It alters Pakistan’s strategic standing and deepens Riyadh’s defense entanglement with Islamabad—and it fundamentally complicates India’s policy in its backyard.
