The United Arab Emirates and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan share deep-rooted and longstanding relations built on mutual trust, a shared sense of purpose, continuous coordination, and close cooperation across a wide range of fields. The foundations of these strong fraternal ties were laid by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and his brother, the late His Majesty King Hussein bin Talal, whose visionary leadership established a lasting partnership based on solidarity, cooperation, and integration between the two brotherly countries. This relationship was reflected early on through the establishment of diplomatic relations, the opening of the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in Amman in July 1973, and the appointment of H.E. Dr. Sheikh Faisal bin Khalid Al Qasimi as the UAE’s first Ambassador to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
Today, these exceptional fraternal relations continue to flourish under the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates, and his brother, His Majesty King Abdullah II Ibn Al Hussein, King of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Their shared commitment to strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries has been reflected in sustained consultation and close coordination, as well as a strong alignment on regional, Arab, Islamic, and humanitarian issues. This enduring partnership underscores the two countries' shared vision in regional and international forums and their joint commitment to promoting peace, security, and stability, advancing the peaceful resolution of disputes through dialogue and diplomacy, and serving the interests of the two brotherly peoples while contributing to the prosperity and stability of the region.
