Military coordination and experience-sharing have been added to the areas of multifaceted cooperation between Syria and Jordan. The talks took place during a visit to Jordan by Brig. Gen. Abdulkadir Tahush, commander of Syria’s military police, on Friday.
Tahush was accompanied by Col. Ahmed Said Issa, director of the International Cooperation Department, and several officers. Tahush met with his Jordanian counterpart, Brig. Gen. Abdulkarim al-Sabileh.
Military coordination and experience-sharing
The two generals discussed ways to strengthen military cooperation and coordination between Syria and Jordan and increase the sharing of experience between the two sides.
Syria’s Ministry of Defense published a statement about the visit and meeting on the X platform.
Cooperation extends across various fields
In recent months, cooperation between Syria and Jordan has covered energy, water, transport, trade, education and civil aviation, as well as regional issues of mutual interest.
On Dec. 8, 2024, armed groups took control of Damascus in Syria. This ended the Baath Party’s 61-year rule and the Assad family’s 53-year rule.
Syria’s new administration announced on Jan. 29, 2025, that it had appointed Ahmed al-Sharaa as the country’s president during a transitional period planned to last five years.
