Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey must remain in their joint defence agreement for at least 10 years after it takes effect. Withdrawal requires a three-month written notice. The 10-year period starts when the final ratification is deposited with the alliance secretariat. The pact mandates mutual military assistance if any member faces armed attack or aggression, though the response scale may vary.
