Cyprus, Greece and Jordan renew trilateral defence cooperation programme
Cyprus, Greece and Jordan renewed their trilateral defence cooperation programme to expand coordination and joint action on security.
Nicosia, Cyprus. Cyprus, Greece and Jordan have renewed their trilateral defence cooperation programme, the General Staff announced on Monday. The agreement provides for the continuation and further development of cooperation between the three countries’ armed forces.
Defence and security cooperation
The programme is intended to strengthen coordination and joint action between Cyprus, Greece and Jordan while expanding cooperation in defence and security.
The General Staff said the renewal would further deepen relations between the three countries in the fields of security and defence.
Trilateral framework
Cyprus, Greece and Jordan have maintained a trilateral framework since 2018, with cooperation extending beyond defence to energy, civil protection, economic ties and regional security.
The renewal follows broader efforts by the three countries to deepen their strategic relationship amid continuing security concerns in the Levant.
Amman summit
The three countries held their fifth trilateral summit in Amman in May, where President Nikos Christodoulides, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Jordanian King Abdullah II discussed regional developments and further cooperation.
The leaders said closer coordination was needed in response to challenges affecting security, energy, migration and maritime routes. Christodoulides described the partnership as “vital for our region” and an important bridge between the European Union and the Middle East.
The summit also addressed developments involving Iran, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq, with the three sides calling for de-escalation and greater regional stability.
