I need to point out that Saudi Arabia has a lot of special relationships, like the US, they've been connected economically, militaristic-ally and politically, as well as other arabian states. Also with pakistan (I must Regret) even on their Wikipedia page it say it their.
But maybe having so many "special relationships" means that they are not quite so special? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.123.191.190 ( talk) 07:21, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- They are unique in comparison to the other relations those countries have, not as relations in general. Bataaf van Oranje (Prinsgezinde) ( talk) 12:50, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
Could a "special relationship" also include relationships between nations that have been consistently negative, like North Korea-US relations for instance? Zobango ( talk) 23:39, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
- North Korea has bad relations with nearly every country so that hardly applies. See Frozen conflict though. Bataaf van Oranje (Prinsgezinde) ( talk) 12:56, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
I think there are several relationships that could be added. Such as:
- Abkhazia–Russia relations
- Algeria–Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic relations
- Andorra–France relations
- Armenia–Russia relations
- Austria–Germany relations
- China–North Korea relations
- Czech Republic–Slovakia relations
- France–United Kingdom relations
- Iran–Iraq relations
- Iran–Syria relations
- Ireland–United Kingdom relations
- Jordan–Saudi Arabia relations
- Kazakhstan–Russia relations
- Lesotho–South Africa relations
- Namibia–South Africa relations
- Netherlands–United Kingdom relations — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.115.114.245 ( talk) 08:37, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

This list seems pretty arbitrary. I don't see any clear definition or any authoritative source used to establish what nations actually have "special relationships". I would argue that either a solid source needs to be found or else this list has to be considered original research and needs to be removed.
-- MC 141.131.2.3 ( talk) 15:48, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
Yes this entire list is random. What exactly is the "German-China" special relationship? Its not even mentioned once on the China-German relations article.
You have like 60+ random "special relationships" extrapolating off the well known UK-US relationship. This is original research.

How can India-U.S. relation be a special relation since U.S. has 9 more "special" relations and India 6 more "special" relations? If we are considering all relations which are more than usual diplomatic relationships, I think we would have a really longer list: for example, good neighbours, like almost all bordering countries in Europe (especially Scandinavia, Benelux, Switzerland with its neighbours...), Spain and Morocco, Turkey and Turkish countries, all Commonwealth countries between each other, Brazil and Argentina... I propose to limitate it to 4 each.

Although Socialist Albania and PRC were quite close during a period of time, modern day Albania and PRC no longer have any significant relations. I think the Albania-China relationship is no longer a special one, as no major economic, cultural, diplomatic or technical exchanges occur now. They have drifted apart and hence, should not be included in this article. Instead, relations like Russia-Kazakhstan, India-Japan, Cuba-Venezuela and Brazil-Japan should be mentioned.
