Turkey says new defence pact aligns with Nato commitments

Turkey says new defence pact aligns with Nato commitments Turkey said on Friday that its new defence agreement with Pakistan and Saudi Arabia did not contradict its commitments to the Nato alliance. "The agreement is not in contradiction with the commitments of Turkey's existing international alliances, including those at the heart of NATO," the government's anti-disinformation service said in a post on X. In fact, it was an additional mechanism for cooperation that supported regional security, the statement added.
