In the light of ongoing discussion and interest surrounding the “Makkah Joint Defence Agreement” (The Makkah Accord) over the past two days, the following context and clarity on this Agreement may be useful for everyone to note:

• The Makkah Joint Defence Agreement, jointly signed by Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye in Makkah Mukaramma on Friday 7th August 2026, reflects the depth of the brotherly relations between the leadership and peoples of the three countries.

• The Makkah Accord is the culmination of years of discussions and coordination, with a common desire to strengthen strategic cooperation in addressing multifarious peace and security challenges and advancing regional peace, stability and prosperity.

• The Makkah Accord does not abrogate or replace any existing bilateral or multilateral agreements between these countries, or with other countries or organisations.

• Any external armed attack on any one of the three countries will be considered as an attack on all, consistent with the inherent right of individual and collective self-defence under Article 51 of the UN Charter.

• The Makkah Accord is purely defensive in nature. It is not targeted against any country and its sole purpose is to further strengthen our ongoing efforts towards peace, stability and prosperity in the wider region.

• The Makkah Accord remains open to any country in the region willing to uphold its fundamental principles and resolve differences through mutual respect, cooperation and peaceful means.

• The Makkah Accord is consistent with the fundamental pillars of our foreign policy, Pakistan looks forward to continuing to work closely with all brotherly countries in the region towards lasting peace and stability. We remain committed to advancing the cause of peaceful resolution of all conflicts and building a more secure, stable and prosperous future for our peoples.

Bugün Suudi Arabistan Veliaht Prensi ve Başbakanı Muhammed bin Selman’ın nazik davetine icabetle Mekke-i Mükerreme’ye bir ziyaret gerçekleştirdik.

Ziyaretimde aziz kardeşlerim Suudi Arabistan Veliaht Prensi ve Başbakanı Muhammed bin Selman ve Pakistan Başbakanı Şahbaz Şerif’le bir araya geldik.

Bu vesileyle üç ülke olarak Ortak Savunma Anlaşması imzaladık.

Kolektif caydırıcılığı temel alan bu anlaşma, güvenlik ve savunma iş birliğimizin ilerletilmesine, savunma sanayisinde ortak projeler geliştirilmesine ve terörizmle mücadeleye katkı sağlayacaktır.

BM Şartı’nın 51’inci maddesinde tanımlanan savunma hakkını da teyit eden anlaşma, hiçbir ülkeyi hedef almadığı gibi bölgemizin huzurunu, refahını ve istikrarını amaçlayan tüm kardeş ülkelerin katılımına açıktır.

Türkiye, bölgesel sahiplenme vizyonu doğrultusunda çatışma ve krizlerin uluslararası hukuka saygı temelinde, diyalog ve diplomasiyle çözüme kavuşturulmasına yönelik ilkeli tutumunu kararlılıkla sürdürecektir.

Ziyaretimizin, istişarelerimizin ve imzaladığımız anlaşmanın tüm bölgemiz için hayırlara vesile olmasını Rabb’imden niyaz ediyorum.

اقوام متحدہ میں پنجاب کی کامیابی، پاکستان کی عزت

برازیل سے باکو، چین سے اقوامِ متحدہ تک میری وزیر اعلیٰ مریم نواز شریف اپنے انقلابی وژن اور ٹھوس کارکردگی سے عالمی محاذ پر پاکستان کو فخر اور عزت دلا رہی ہیں

وزیر اعلیٰ مریم نواز شریف کے وژن کے تحت پنجاب کے دو پراجیکٹس اقوام متحدہ کی سطح پر شارٹ لسٹ۔

اقوامِ متحدہ کے معتبر WSIS انعامات 2026 میں پنجاب کا ورچوئل سینٹر فار چائلڈ سیفٹی "میرا پیارا" دنیا کا گلوبل چیمپئن پراجیکٹ بن کر ٹاپ 5 میں شامل، جبکہ ورچوئل ویمن پولیس اسٹیشن دنیا کے ٹاپ 20 پراجیکٹس میں شارٹ لسٹ۔

پاکستان دنیا کا واحد ملک بن گیا جس کے دو پراجیکٹس اس عالمی سطح پر منتخب ہوئے، اور دونوں کا تعلق پنجاب سے ہے۔

"میرا پیارا" پراجیکٹ کے تحت اب تک 1 لاکھ 45 ہزار سے زائد کیسز نمٹائے گئے، 53 ہزار سے زائد گمشدہ بچے بازیاب کر کے ماؤں کی گودیں ہری کی گئیں، جن میں 3 ہزار خصوصی بچے بھی شامل ہیں۔ بچوں پر تشدد اور چائلڈ ابیوز کے کیسز میں فوری کارروائی کرتے ہوئے 3,830 ملزمان کو گرفتار اور 4,168 چالان عدالتوں میں جمع کرائے گئے۔

یہ عالمی اعتراف ثبوت ہے کہ پنجاب اب باتوں سے نہیں، جدید ترین ٹیکنالوجی اور ٹھوس عوامی سروس کے ذریعے دنیا کی قیادت کر رہا ہے۔ مریم نواز شریف نے ڈیجیٹل گورننس کا نیا عالمی معیار قائم کر دیا ہے۔

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia highly appreciates the US President Donald Trump's decision to give diplomacy a chance to reach an acceptable agreement to end the war, restore the security and freedom of maritime navigation in the Strait of Hormuz to its state prior to February 28th, 2026, and address all points of contention in a way that serves the security and stability of the region.

Saudi Arabia also highly appreciates the ongoing mediation efforts carried out by Pakistan in this regard. Saudi Arabia looks forward to Iran siezing the opportunity to avoid the dangerous implications of escalation, and urgently responding to the efforts to advance the negotiations leading up to a comprehensive agreement to achieve lasting peace in the region and the world.

The Government of Pakistan notes with utmost satisfaction the Court of Arbitration’s Supplemental Award Concerning Maximum Pondage, handed down on 15 May 2026, in the Indus Waters Treaty proceedings arising from the Ratle Hydroelectric Plant and the Kishenganga Hydroelectric Project design disputes.

The Award affirms Pakistan’s central position that the Treaty places substantive limits on India’s water-control capability on the Western Rivers. These limits are not formalities. They apply at the planning and design stage and cannot be satisfied merely by a later assurance of operational restraint. Pondage for a Run-of-River Plant must be justified by real project needs, actual expected operation, site hydrology, hydraulic conditions, power-system requirements, and the information and explanation required under the Treaty.

Building on the Court’s General Issues Award of 8 August 2025, the Supplemental Award gives practical effect to the standard that installed capacity and anticipated load must be realistic, well-founded and defensible. Installed capacity must correspond to actual expected operation, hydrologic and hydraulic data, and Treaty requirements. Anticipated load must correspond to actual expected operation and to the projected needs of the power system the plant is intended to serve.

This addresses a core Treaty concern. India cannot justify increased Pondage through imagined capacity, artificial load curves, unrealistic peaking assumptions, or bare assertions of compliance with Paragraph 15 release limits. Paragraph 15 remains an operational constraint, but it is not a substitute for an evidence-based justification of the water-control capacity sought. Any different operating pattern must be supported by specific information and underlying data produced by India.

The Award also strengthens Pakistan’s review rights. India must provide Pakistan with sufficient information and explanation to assess Treaty compliance. If India fails to do so, it fails to carry its burden of establishing that the proposed maximum Pondage satisfies Paragraph 8(c) of Annexure D.

The Court further confirmed that any applicable minimum-flow obligation must be taken into account in calculating Pondage required for Firm Power where such obligation exists and is not otherwise satisfied. Paragraph 15 release requirements do not automatically satisfy such an obligation.

Pakistan also notes the Court’s earlier holding that the awards of a Court of Arbitration are final and binding on the Parties and have otherwise controlling legal effect for subsequent Treaty bodies on relevant questions of Treaty interpretation. Pakistan will place these interpretations before the Neutral Expert process, consistent with Treaty procedures and applicable confidentiality arrangements.

Pakistan remains committed to the Indus Waters Treaty, its dispute-resolution procedures, and the peaceful settlement of water-related differences. Pakistan will continue to protect its rights under the IWT and will pursue every lawful and diplomatic means to ensure that hydroelectric projects on the Western Rivers are designed and operated strictly within Treaty limits.

The Award is a strategic consolidation of Pakistan’s Treaty position: maximum Pondage must be realistic, evidence-based, hydrologically grounded, power-system justified, Treaty-compliant, and incapable of inflation through artificial assumptions.

آج کے دن صدیق جان صابر شاکر عمران ریاض کا شکریہ ادا نہ کرنا زیادتی ہو گی ، انہی کے ویلاگ سن کر انڈیا نے فیصلہ کیا کہ عوام تو فوج کے خلاف ہو چکی ہے لہذا حملہ کر دیتے ہیں۔ پھر جو انڈیا ساتھ ہوا وہ دنیا نے دیکھا۔

I condemn, in the strongest possible terms, the illegal interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters, and the unlawful detention of activists onboard.

This flagrant violation of international law and deliberate obstruction of humanitarian aid by Israeli occupying power once again demonstrates continued Israeli impunity.

International community must step in to end repeated violations of international law by Israel, lift the blockade of Gaza, and ensure immediate release of all humanitarian workers and activists onboard the flotilla.

[Shehbaz Sharif @CMShehbaz]

Had a warm and constructive telephone exchange this evening with my brother, President Masoud Pezeshkian, on the evolving regional situation.

I appreciated Iran’s continued engagement, including the high-level delegation to Islamabad led by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, whom I had the pleasure of meeting earlier today.

I reaffirmed that, with the support of friends and partners, Pakistan remains committed to serve as an honest and sincere facilitator - working tirelessly to advance durable peace and lasting stability in the region.

[Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi]

Very fruitful visit to Pakistan, whose good offices and brotherly efforts to bring back peace to our region we very much value.

Shared Iran's position concerning workable framework to permanently end the war on Iran. Have yet to see if the U.S. is truly serious about diplomacy.

The situation as it stands at 1930 PST

1. Formal response from Iranian side about confirmation of delegation to attend Islamabad Peace Talks is still awaited.

2. ⁠Pakistan as the mediator is in constant touch with Iranians and pursuing the path of diplomacy and dialogue.

3. Ceasefire ends at 4:50 am PST, 22 April. Decision from Iran to attend the talks before the end of two weeks ceasefire is critical.

4. ⁠Pakistan has made sincere efforts to convince the Iranian leadership to participate in the second round of talks and these efforts continue.

May Allah continue to bless Pakistan with greater success and grant us the humility to remain grounded.

I welcome the announcement of a ceasefire in Lebanon, facilitated through bold and sagacious diplomatic efforts led by President Donald Trump, and express the hope that it will pave the way for sustainable peace.
