Abstract EN
This study aims to analyze the Democrats' priorities toward Jordan in Obama's communications through the period from 2009 to 2017.This study examines documents of Obama during his work as the president of the United States.
It answers the questions: what were the US's priorities in Jordan during Obama's administration? And how was Jordan described in Obama's communications? This work is a creative one, as it uses qualitative and quantitative research to investigate Obama's activities toward Jordan.
In order to examine the U.S.' foreign policy priorities in Jordan by using Obama‟s communications.
The study uses the searchable “Public Papers” archive of “The American Presidency Project” (http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/), maintained by John Woolley and Gerhard Peters.
Also, in order to classify the U.S.
interests in Jordan, we use Byman and Molle (2016) classification of the U.S.' foreign policy interests in the Middle East: counterterrorism, security of Israel, democratization, nuclear proliferation, and oil.
This article finds out that Obama's foreign strategy and approach had been driven by the maxim of „multilateral retrenchment‟, which is designed to achieve the United States' foreign commitments, reshape its standing among the world powers, and transfer burdens onto foreign partners.
The United States of America under Obama's administration substantially depended on Jordan to solve many regional complex issues and crises, particularly counterterrorism and Arab-Israeli peace negotiations.
