After the disastrous attack on Iran by the U.S., it was clear that this would have consequences. Now we see the first big one: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/07/world/middleeast/saudi-turkey-pakistan-joint-defense-pact.html Effectively the U.S. is loosing three (more or less) allies. Other observations: Greece and even more India won't like itThis new alliance has nuclear weaponsI don't think this club will be a fan of IsraelThey will try to collect more members among the Sunni Islam countriesTurkey is a rising weapon manufacturer, what will happen if they get backed by Saudi money?I consider Turkey to be an "on paper only" NATO member in the future. I don't think this will stabilize anything.
