cultural ties through renewing a joint cultural cooperation agreement. Jordan had signed the first cultural
cooperation agreement with the Republic of Korea in Seoul in 1977, and in 2018 agreed
to an exchange program in education, higher education, culture, antiquities,
media, and the field of sports, which was signed for the 2018-2020 period.
In turn, the Korean ambassador emphasized that his country
will continue to support Jordan in its endeavors to bring about peace and
prosperity in the region, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.
He said that 2022 will mark the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations
