It is a diplomatic visit with significance because it marks the seventy-fifth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. At the airport, Modi was greeted by the Prime Minister of Jordan, Jafar Hassan, indicating that Amman views this as an important engagement opportunity.
During the two days that he is in Jordan, Modi will be meeting with King Abdullah II and talking about bilateral relations and evaluating the current regional situation from a bilateral perspective.

Regional role and wider tour context of Modi’s Jordan visit
Jordan is also incorporated into India’s views on connectivity in the region (i.e., the currently proposed Asia-Pacific-ME/Europe Economic Corridor), where Jordan would serve as a part of a larger strategic land corridor. PM Modi’s recent visit to Jordan follows many previous high-level visits, which have increased the trust factor and security dialogue between India and Jordan through the economic corridor project. PM Modi is expected to travel to Ethiopia and Oman after his visit to Jordan. Prime Minister Modi’s visit will extend India’s efforts to promote Global South collaboration through Ethiopia and review India’s overall strategic partnership with Oman. These three visits also highlight India’s desire to enhance economic integration, build/strengthen regional connectivity, and enhance India’s diplomatic reach throughout critical areas of the world.
