安卡拉：土耳其议长周五（9月25日）表示，土耳其、沙特阿拉伯和巴基斯坦之间的防务条约有可能演变为一个包含伊朗在内的、面向“穆斯林世界”的更广泛条约，并补充称，该条约预计将于下个月提交批准。
ANKARA: A defence pact between Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan could turn into a broader pact "for the Muslim world" that includes Iran, Türkiye's parliament speaker said on Friday (Sep 25), adding that it is expected to be submitted for ratification from next month. The regional powers signed the "
这些地区大国于8月签署了《麦加联合防务协定》，数周后，也门受伊朗支持的胡塞武装为回应更广泛的伊朗战争，对沙特阿拉伯发动了袭击。类似于北约第五条，该条约规定，对任一盟友的袭击即被视为对所有盟友的袭击。签署方已召开会议，以明确协定的参数并评估利雅得的需求。
Mecca Joint Defence Agreement " in August, weeks before Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis launched attacks against Saudi Arabia, in reaction to the wider Iran war. Similar to NATO's Article 5, the pact stipulates that an attack on one ally constitutes an attack on all. The signatories have met to lay out the accord's parameters and assess Riyadh's needs.
土耳其议长努曼·库尔特卢穆什在安卡拉告诉记者：“国际协定要生效，需要议会批准。目前作为该协定一部分举行的会议是预备会议。”他补充说：“我预计此事将在近期列入议会议程”，指的是议会将于10月结束休会期后复会。
"For international agreements to come into effect, parliamentary approval is needed. The meetings held as part of the agreement at the moment are preparatory meetings," Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmus told reporters in Ankara. "I expect this issue to come on the parliament's agenda in the coming period," he added, referring to parliament's return from recess in October.
当被问及该条约是否针对伊朗时，库尔特卢穆什重申了土耳其的立场，即该协定并非针对任何特定国家，而是主要旨在冲突背景下以及以色列“敌对政策”下确保该地区国家的安全，并补充称德黑兰也有可能加入该条约。
Asked whether the pact was against Iran, Kurtulmus repeated Türkiye's position that the agreement did not target any specific country but was primarily aimed at ensuring the security of states in the region amid conflicts and Israel's "hostile policies", adding that Tehran could potentially join the pact too.
他说：“我们从未将《麦加协定》视为针对伊朗的条约，它绝不能是这样的。事实上，我们希望《麦加协定》能演变为一个面向穆斯林世界的更广泛协定。伊朗也可以加入这一协定，我们希望随着其他地区国家的参与，它将变得更加强大。”
"We never see the Mecca Agreement as a pact against Iran, it must not be that way. In fact, we hope the Mecca Agreement can turn into a broader agreement for the Muslim world. Iran can join this agreement too, we hope it will become much stronger with the participation of other regional countries," he said.
安卡拉此前曾表示，可以帮助满足利雅得的军事需求，特别是在技术问题上，但官员们表示，由于联合协定尚未获得批准，现阶段的支持将主要基于双边关系，并符合两国联盟的精神。
Ankara has previously said it could help meet Riyadh's military needs, especially on technical issues, but officials have said any support at this stage would be largely bilateral and in the spirit of their alliance, since the joint agreement has yet to be ratified.
沙特阿拉伯、土耳其和巴基斯坦的军方负责人即将举行会晤，讨论支持利雅得的途径。
The military chiefs of Saudi Arabia, Türkiye and Pakistan are set to meet to discuss ways of supporting Riyadh.
