US embassy cable - 04AMMAN2644

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Classified By: Ambassador Edward W. Gnehm for reasons 1.5 (b) (d) 
 
1.  (C)  Embassy Amman and the Russian Mission have a regular 
dialogue at the DCM level on a range of issues, including 
counterterrorism.  The Russian DCM participates in the G-8 
Counterterrorism Action Group (CTAG) meetings, most recently 
hosted by Post on February 5.  Although he thus far has 
contributed little of substance with regard to Russia's CT 
agenda or activities in Jordan, we remain in contact to 
organize future CTAG meetings.  However, we see little real 
convergence with Russia on CT issues in Jordan as Russia has 
little to add to the exceptional level of U.S.-Jordan 
cooperation in this regard.
