Saudi Arabia has reacted with deep concern to the possibility of a military attack order from Donald Trump, the President of the United States, against Iran. Riyadh is particularly worried that if such an attack occurs, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Iranian military may retaliate by targeting Saudi Arabia's critical infrastructure. This infrastructure includes water and electricity facilities as well as those related to the country's oil and energy sector.

Meeting of Representatives of the Makkah Joint Defense Agreement
In this context, a few days ago, senior representatives of the "Makkah Joint Defense Agreement," which includes Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, traveled to Tehran. This delegation came to meet with Iranian officials, including Masoud Pezeshkian, the President of Iran, Abbas Araghchi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Mohsen Rezaei, the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council. Khalid bin Salman Al Saud, the Minister of Defense of Saudi Arabia, was also part of this delegation.
These meetings were held to discuss regional security and military issues and to strengthen defense cooperation among Islamic countries. Saudi Arabia and its allies are seeking diplomatic solutions to reduce tensions and are particularly looking for ways to ensure their security against Iranian threats.
Consequences of a Military Attack
If any military attack on Iran occurs, the consequences for Saudi Arabia could be very serious. Experts believe that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and other military entities in Iran are likely to retaliate, which could lead to a major security crisis in the region. These concerns are especially significant at a time when Saudi Arabia is seeking to establish stability and security within its own borders.
Saudi Arabia is striving to prevent any military conflict through diplomacy and dialogue with its neighbors, while also ensuring its national security. In this context, international reactions and support from other countries could also play a role in reducing tensions and preventing war in the region.
