According to Dr. Jamal Al Shalabi, Professor of Political Science at the Hashemite University, turmoil in the Middle East has prompted Jordan to strengthen cooperation with its neighbors. Egypt-Jordan relations are at an all time high, Al Shalabi told The Cipher Brief, and it is “logical” for Jordan to deepen security ties with Israel.

The Cipher Brief: Since the emergence of ISIS, how have Jordan and Egypt cooperated to combat the threat of the terrorist group in Syria and the Sinai? Has there been an increase in military sales, intelligence sharing, defense cooperation, etc.?
