Pakistan has reportedly held talks with Kuwait on an expanded defense agreement, with energy cooperation as a trade-off, according to Reuters citing sources. The reported negotiations come amid broader regional shifts.
As The Zioneer has reported, Pakistan's foreign minister previously engaged in talks with the United States and Iran aimed at reducing tensions (July 12). Kuwait, meanwhile, has been directly affected by the Iran-US escalation, with its air defenses intercepting missiles and drones in June and July (The Zioneer, June 10, July 9).
The details of the proposed defense agreement remain undisclosed, and it is unclear whether the talks have concluded or are ongoing. The potential deal would align Pakistan and Kuwait closer strategically, with energy cooperation serving as a key component.
