Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi, a key advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has expressed support for Iran’s participation in the Pakistan-Saudi Arabia defense pact. Safavi described the pact as a positive step and proposed that Iran, Iraq, and other nations should join. The advisor believes that Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq should collaborate to establish a strong regional presence and improve security cooperation. The Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan was established to address any aggression against either nation as an attack on both. This agreement was formalized during Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s visit to Riyadh.
