What is known is that the policy of #Jordan 🇯🇴 always follows the art of possible, and the Jordanian leadership knows its natural size in the region, so it follows a historical balance, whether with the countries of the Arab Mashreq, the Gulf bloc, headed by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦, #Egypt 🇪🇬, # Sudan 🇸🇩 and the Maghreb assembly and the most stable of them is #Morocco 🇲🇦 Therefore, Jordan does not tend to extremism, whether it is right or left, and despite the small size of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, but it knows how to deal with a relative balance between East and West, led by the #US 🇺🇲
I said previously that the Arab League cannot remain in its current form because there are huge differences and differences at the level of the ideological structure of each country separately
Therefore, it was necessary to explicitly admit that these differences must produce a conviction that the Arab League must be dismantled into specific regional ones. The Arab Gulf - rich and active not only on the Arab level but also on the Islamic and international levels - is different from the countries of the Arab Mashreq as well as from the Maghreb countries and Egypt because each country A functional geographical role is different from other countries, bearing in mind that there are existential and interest geopolitical ties and the words of His Majesty King Abdullah II with the American journalist Hadley Gamble -CNBC correspondent based in #AbuDahbi- was very accurate at the level of clarification
The gelatinous Arab nationalist idea that over-reliance on the Arabic language and historical and tribal ties and neglected the international and Islamic strategic functions alike it made things complicated in terms of results and aspirations
Why was the creation of a Middle Eastern NATO force considered?!
In order to be able to dismantle the idea, we need to understand the functional roles of the region by clarifying that the needs of the Middle East are different from the needs of the Arab countries as a whole, and that the ethnicities are different if we put in our logic that Turkey and Iran link them to the Arab Gulf and the Arab Mashreq is different from their presence in North Africa
In an article I wrote about US-Saudi relations, I said that Saudi Arabia’s demands are specific to the Americans, the most important of which is the presence of something similar to the eighth paragraph in the NATO force alliance, which aims to defend member states in the event of an existential attack that poses a threat to the stability of any country but the dilemma facing Washington is that it does not want to be present, as it had decided to leave the region since the era of former US President Barack Obama at least. Therefore, King Abdullah’s proposal balances Washington’s decision with the needs of the region so that the region has a functional role represented in bearing the responsibility of joint defense among the countries that own Same mentality and ideological orientations and here it is represented between Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, Israel and #Turkey 🇹🇷 so that any country can be added in the future if the goals and aspirations are agreed upon but this all depends on US President Joe Biden's visit and Washington's seriousness to support this alliance in a way that satisfies all parties, and most importantly, cooperation and acceptance of #Israel 🇮🇱 as an ally and cooperating party
The next few days will bring a lot of news.
