Turkey will host talks on creating a new Middle East security platform alongside Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and possibly Egypt. The meeting, on the sidelines of the Antalya Diplomacy Forum, would be the third such gathering in a month after earlier discussions in Riyadh and Islamabad.
The initiative is notable, it reflects Ankara’s push to position itself as a regional diplomatic broker and to deepen security cooperation among key Muslim countries. If realised, the forum could signal a shift toward more regionally driven security arrangements amid uncertainty about Western engagement in the Middle East.
