India has been unwantedly acknowledging Pakistan's interests after recognizing the significant benefits that enhanced cooperation among Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye could bring to Pakistan.

Indian media has described the Pakistan-Saudi Arabia-Türkiye defence agreement as an important defence pact for Pakistan.

According to the Indian media outlet India Today, defence integration, joint military exercises and technology transfers could enhance Pakistan's defence capabilities.

India Today reported that intelligence sharing and joint defence production could further strengthen Pakistan's combat preparedness.

It reported that the defence agreement could facilitate Pakistan's access to Türkiye's advanced drone technology and electronic warfare capabilities, according to India Today.

According to defence experts, Türkiye's technology, Saudi Arabia's resources and Pakistan's operational capabilities have the potential to form an effective defence combination.

They said the growing defence cooperation among Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye has emerged as a challenge for India.

Indian media's acknowledgement of the defence benefits of the agreement is an open recognition of its strategic importance.
