It only serves those who are interested in chaos in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The DG ISPR added: \u201cBut at the same time, [\u2026] Pakistan is giving very strong signals that this collective deterrence is at play, has already been actualised and we will take all necessary steps for the security and territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the <em>Haramain Sharifain<\/em> (The Two Holy Mosques).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He remarked that the \u201cmessage is going to everyone, whether he is in front or he is behind\u201d the escalation.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding reports linking the alliance\u2019s formation to the need to deter Iran or Israel, Lt Gen Chaudhry said the pact was not \u201ccountry-specific\u201d and did not have any \u201coffensive intent\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>However, he added: \u201cIt is [formed] to have peace, stability and security in the region. So any actor which threatens that peace, stability and security, it automatically interacts with this collective deterrence mechanism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the threats to maritime navigation in the Bab al-Mandeb Strait and the Strait of Hormuz, the DG ISPR noted that Riyadh had established a multinational maritime defence coalition, with a Pakistani naval officer serving as its deputy commander.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018We need to stop attacking each other\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Asked about his message to Saudi Arabia and the Muslim world, Lt Gen Chaudhry said Muslims \u201cneed to unite\u201d. He emphasised that there was no advantage \u201cto these countries, any country, by vertically or horizontally escalating these conflicts\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to stop attacking each other,\u201d he maintained, highlighting that Pakistan had been trying to convey the same to all parties since the US-Iran war erupted.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"media  w-full  w-full  media--  media--embed  \" data-original-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=b1YL4w7NzCA\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cIf we are unable to come to a negotiated outcome and we turn into a military conflict, then this instrument of collective deterrence of the Makkah alliance will definitely come into play, as it is coming into play,\u201d Lt Gen Chaudhry said.<\/p>\n<p>On scepticism raised about the Makkah pact, the DG ISPR remarked that the sceptics were \u201conly those who have a problem with this alliance, so it\u2019s their job to do this criticism\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not suddenly out of the blue that they have decided. The relations go way back,\u201d he stressed. He further termed it \u201cphenomenal\u201d how the alliance has evolved \u201cin a very short period of time\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the expansion of the alliance, the military spokesperson maintained that the door remains open to other countries that believe in the principle of collective deterrence and share the member states\u2019 goals related to regional security and stability.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about reports of Egypt and Syria\u2019s interest in joining, he stated such decisions rest with the political, strategic and military leadership of the three countries.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye convened an emergency meeting under the Makkah Defence Alliance and agreed to deploy military forces and capabilities rapidly in the kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>While the statement did not specifically name any threat, the development came against the backdrop of Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>The Makkah defence pact, signed on Aug 7, aims to strengthen collective deterrence and empower its signatory states to treat an attack against one of them as an attack against all of them.<\/p>\n<p>On Sept 18, the DG ISPR said Pakistan would go to \u201cany extent\u201d to defend Saudi Arabia, adding that Islamabad\u2019s commitment to the kingdom\u2019s security is \u201cunconditional\u201d.
