Syrian source outlines conditional possibilities for Saudi-Syrian military cooperation

Saudi Gazette reports that a Syrian diplomatic source described current military cooperation with Saudi Arabia as training Syrian personnel, exchanging expertise and holding military consultations. Saudi coordination visits to Syria are expected to begin in December 2026. Depending on shared interests, the source says cooperation could develop into a mutual-defence agreement or Syria could join the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement, the separate pact signed by Saudi Arabia, Türkiye and Pakistan. These remain conditional possibilities raised by the Syrian source, not a Saudi announcement or an agreed change to the three-country pact.
