Pakistan Strengthens Naval Cooperation with Turkey Amid Indian Ocean Strategic Shifts
Pakistan is enhancing its naval capabilities through increased defence cooperation with Turkey, including joint naval operations, military training, and warship construction under a technology-transfer program. This partnership aims to develop Pakistan's blue-water navy, capable of operating beyond its coastline, impacting strategic dynamics in the Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and Red Sea. The collaboration raises questions about Pakistan's long-term maritime ambitions and potential effects on regional security and the balance of power, particularly concerning India's maritime interests.
