In Israel, Jordan was offered to declare war, breaking the peace treaty.

Former Israeli diplomat Ilan Baker said that if Jordan is dissatisfied with Tel Aviv’s position to annex territories located on the west bank of the Jordan River and threatens to break the peace treaty, the king of this Middle Eastern country could risk and declare war on Israel. As it turned out, the leader of the kingdom has already made such a statement, threatening to strike at the territory of the Jewish state in case of the slightest aggression.

“A retired Israeli diplomat, Ilan Baker, who was involved in drafting a peace agreement with Jordan, said the Kingdom has no legal ability to cancel the agreement with Israel if it does not wage war with it. He explained in a document published by the Jerusalem Center for Public and Government Affairs in Israel that "peaceful relations between the two countries are provided for in article 2 of the peace treaty and include the mutual recognition of sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as the political independence of both parties." “The peace treaty has no validity period, and it can only be canceled by aggressive actions or by declaring war on one of the parties, which means that the essence of the agreement will be annulled,” he said. Baker continued: “It is highly doubtful that Jordan is interested in such a move, especially since the annexation in the West Bank, even if it is unilateral, is not an act of aggression against its sovereignty or territorial integrity. Moreover, since Jordan ruled the West Bank from 1948 to 1967, the peace agreement expressly states that it does not extend to the West Bank. ”- сообщает Al-Masdar News.

Analysts note that Israel’s self-confidence may be the reason for a new full-scale military conflict in the Middle East, which, in addition to Israel and Palestine, could engage countries such as Jordan, Iran and Lebanon, which could be a very big problem for Tel Aviv.

“The situation at the moment is such that only the Palestinians have enough unguided missiles to crush Israeli air defense. Where Lebanon, Iran and Jordan have great opportunities, and this can serve as a good slap for Tel Aviv, which is pursuing a policy of occupation. ", - the analyst notes.
