The Mecca Joint Defense Agreement, signed August 7, 2026, by Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, and Pakistan, establishes collective defense commitments modeled on Article 51 of the UN Charter and has been explicitly described by its signatories as open to accession by additional states. Turkish President Erdoğan and other officials have signaled interest from potential partners such as Egypt and Qatar, with technical discussions noted in early diplomatic reporting. Signatories have stressed the pact’s defensive character, its non-sectarian focus, and its role in regional security diversification amid shifting external guarantees. No formal accessions have occurred in the three weeks since signing. Traders are therefore monitoring scheduled bilateral meetings, OIC gatherings, and any joint statements through late 2026 that could produce the required accession instruments or official announcements. Resolution hinges on verifiable government statements or signed protocols confirming new parties.

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.
