Hundreds of political, legal and other figures in Jordan signed a public letter warning that Jordan’s close alliance with the United States poses a risk. The letter, released in a prominent newspaper, calls attention to the strategic implications of the partnership and urges policymakers to reconsider the presence of U.S. troops in the Kingdom.

The document lists concerns about domestic stability, regional dynamics, and the potential for external conflict. It emphasizes that the alliance, while historically beneficial, could expose Jordan to heightened security threats and diplomatic pressure from neighboring states.

Signature holders include senior lawmakers, judges, and civic leaders who represent a broad cross-section of Jordanian society. Their collective stance underscores a growing debate over foreign military involvement and the balance between security cooperation and national autonomy.

The letter has sparked discussion among analysts and foreign policy experts, who note that similar calls have risen in other Gulf and Levant countries. Whether the U.S. will adjust its posture in Jordan remains contingent on diplomatic negotiations and regional developments.
