Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, and Pakistan signed the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement on August 7, 2026, establishing a mutual defense commitment under which an armed attack on one member constitutes an attack on all. The pact explicitly leaves room for expansion, with Turkish President Erdoğan publicly inviting additional “brotherly countries” seeking regional stability and Saudi and Pakistani officials confirming interest from unnamed states. Egypt’s foreign minister stated Cairo is conducting a constitutional and legal review, while analysts highlight Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, Jordan, and Azerbaijan as plausible candidates given existing security and economic ties. No formal accessions have occurred in the first three weeks, leaving trader assessments of any joining by year-end dependent on the pace of ongoing bilateral talks and institutional setup. Scheduled diplomatic engagements through late 2026, including potential GCC or OIC-related meetings, represent the primary near-term catalysts.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if any country other than Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, or Pakistan formally joins the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
A country will be considered to have formally joined if either of the following occurs:
the country signs the Agreement or a formal accession protocol or instrument that, by its terms or official characterization, makes it a party, member, or signatory; or
the country and the Agreement’s existing parties officially announce, jointly or separately, that the country has become a party, member, or signatory.
Statements of intent, applications, invitations to join, negotiations, parliamentary authorization, approval in principle, or general defense cooperation will not qualify. A separate bilateral or multilateral defense agreement will not qualify unless it is officially identified as accession to the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement.
Once a qualifying accession has occurred, this market will resolve to “Yes,” regardless of any subsequent withdrawal, suspension, reversal, or termination.
The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from the governments of Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, Pakistan, and any country reported to have joined; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
