Jordan's Diplomatic Success Through Palestinian Support

Recent diplomatic efforts led directly by King Abdullah II of Jordan have achieved significant results. Recognition of Palestinian statehood has spread throughout the international community, and the perception of the Palestinian issue among Western opinion leaders has shifted. Jordan has successfully proven that Israel's narrative, which has long dominated Western society, is false.

Although a ceasefire agreement has been reached in Gaza, Jordan believes the threats have not ended. This is because Israeli far-right forces have seized policy-making power and enjoy official support from the U.S. government. However, support for Israel among ordinary American citizens is weakening, and changes are being detected even among traditional pro-Israel constituencies in the West.

Israeli Far-Right Government's Hostility Toward Jordan

The recent regional war has clearly revealed the hostility of far-right forces within the Israeli government toward Jordan. There was significant resentment over Jordan's activities opposing the justification of attacks on Gaza.

But the problem goes beyond simple grievances. The concept of 'Greater Israel' inherent in Israeli far-right ideology threatens Jordan and the entire region. Territorial expansion ambitions based on interpretations of the Torah (Old Testament) remain alive.

In response, Jordanian diplomacy continues to emphasize the country's central role in maintaining regional and international peace. The strategy is to expose the plans of Israeli far-right ideology to the international community, particularly the U.S. government, based on Jordan's strength and stability. American voters have begun demanding that their government prioritize national interests, sending a message that the path to the White House and Congress no longer needs to go through Tel Aviv.

Southern Syria Situation: A New Threat

Recent events have shown that the regional threat from Israel's far-right government is not limited to the Palestinian issue. Territorial reorganization attempts in northern Syria along Jordan's border have expanded the threat.

Jordanian diplomacy has supported Syrian unity and stability from the early stages of the Syrian crisis that began in March 2011, and after the fall of the Assad regime last December. However, the situation has become more serious as independent entities named after the Torah have been declared in southern Syria. These designations represent domination and expansion into Jordan's interior, a step toward realizing dreams based on false Torah interpretations.

Therefore, supporting the current Syrian government's efforts for internal social peace and territorial unity has become a critical task for Jordan. Jordan plans to utilize its successful network of relationships with regional and international partners who have influence on this issue.

Future Outlook [AI Analysis]

As threats have not disappeared, Jordan's efforts are likely to continue. Jordan occupies a special geographic and geopolitical position, requiring an approach different from other countries' perspectives and response methods.

Continuous coordination with Arab brother nations and regional and international allies will be a core pillar of Jordanian diplomacy. Opening and strengthening communication channels with countries whose perspectives align with Jordan's on current issues is particularly important.

Cooperation may expand with countries whose strategic interests intersect with Jordan's, such as South Africa and some Latin American countries that have recently emerged on the international stage. These nations are attracting attention in recent events and in media and political spheres, making them potential new partners for Jordanian diplomacy.

Impact on South Korea

Middle Eastern instability is an important issue for South Korea, as it is directly connected to energy security. Jordan, a Middle Eastern country that has maintained friendly relations with South Korea, can provide a positive environment for Korea's Middle Eastern expansion and economic cooperation through its efforts to maintain regional stability. Additionally, Jordan's strategy to strengthen multilateral diplomacy shares similarities with South Korea's middle-power diplomacy, suggesting room for expanded bilateral cooperation.
