Iran says no reason to fear Pakistan-Turkey-Saudi security pact

Iran sees no reason to be concerned ​that a new security ‌pact between Pakistan, Turkey and Saudi Arabia is directed ​against Tehran, Foreign Ministry ​spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said on ⁠Monday.

Baghaei said the pact ​showed a shift in regional ​countries' approach to security, with greater reliance on their own ​capabilities rather than outside ​powers.

"Any plan that is based on ‌the ⁠geopolitical and historical realities of the region, is comprehensive and inclusive, and correctly ​identifies the ​enemy ⁠and the threat, has a chance of ​helping to strengthen ​security ⁠and prevent instability and abuses by the Zionist enemy ⁠and ​its allies," he ​added, referring to Israel.
