The talks will bring together Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman, Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin, according to Ali Bagheri-Kani, deputy secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.
Kani told state broadcaster IRIB news that the discussions aim to establish a regional security framework independent of outside powers.
“All three countries participating in this meeting, together with Iran, can draw upon the successful experience of the Islamic Republic of Iran in national security-building to take an effective step toward establishing endogenous security,” IRIB news reported.
Reuters also reported that senior officials from Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan, all members of the Mecca Pact, are scheduled to meet Iranian officials in Tehran on Monday to discuss regional coordination, citing two people familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The meeting comes as US President Donald Trump continues to weigh negotiations with Tehran against the possibility of renewed military action, despite ruling out a US strike on Iran on Sunday.
