Cyprus, Greece and Jordan vow deeper cooperation at Amman summit

Cyprus, Greece and Jordan reaffirmed their commitment to dialogue, de‑escalation and regional peace during their fifth trilateral summit in Amman.

President Nikos Christodoulides said Cyprus is a stable, reliable partner and a bridge between Europe and the Middle East, adding that Nicosia is proud to stand with Jordan and Greece in what he called a vital partnership for regional stability. He said the trilateral format is not only important for the region but also a key channel toward Brussels.

He said deeper cooperation is essential for addressing shared challenges, including migration, climate change, regional security and opportunities in economic cooperation and energy transition.

Jordan’s King Abdullah II said close cooperation with Cyprus and Greece, both bilaterally and trilaterally, strengthens their ability to contribute positively to regional and international stability and prosperity.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said the summit sends a message of friendship, cooperation and firm adherence to international law and peaceful coexistence.

Government spokesman Konstantinos Letymbiotis said the meeting carries upgraded political weight, confirming the three countries’ shared goal of lasting peace, security and stability. A Joint Declaration adopted at the end of the summit reaffirmed the core principles and priorities of the partnership.

The summit took place amid heightened geopolitical tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East, affecting security, energy, migration, maritime routes and overall stability. Leaders also reviewed developments in Iran, Gaza, the West Bank, Jerusalem, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq, expressing a shared position in favor of de‑escalation and preventing further spread of the crisis.

The declaration said the trilateral partnership is being elevated to more effective levels to strengthen collective capacity in addressing challenges arising from a rapidly shifting international and regional landscape.

The three countries agreed to deepen cooperation in trade, investment and culture, and to expand collaboration in strategic sectors such as supply‑chain resilience, security of commercial routes and the development of transport and economic‑network infrastructure.

The declaration also highlights the goal of positioning the Eastern Mediterranean as a vital link between Europe and the Middle East and stresses the need to maintain the cease‑fire between the United States and Iran.
