Sources: Saudi Arabia and Pakistan sign defense protocol but it will not affect Saudi Arabia's oil supply to India.

Jin10 data September 22 news, a source said that the new joint defense protocol between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan is unlikely to change Riyadh's energy relationship with major consumer India. When asked whether India would continue to purchase Saudi oil, an informed source said, “Of course it will.” The source stated that Saudi Arabia is seeking to strengthen its security by expanding alliances, but not at the expense of its business relationships. India is one of the world's largest crude oil consumers and a major customer of Saudi Arabia. For decades, India has been in conflict with its neighbor Pakistan. Data from Kpler shows that Riyadh's daily crude oil sales in July were slightly above 600,000 barrels, making it one of India's three major crude oil suppliers along with Russia and Iraq.
