Jordan–Kurdistan Region relations are bilateral relations between Jordan and the Kurdistan Region[1]. Jordan is represented in Kurdistan Region through a consulate general in Erbil since 2011,[2][3] while Kurdistan Region has no representation in Jordan. Relations are described as historical, dating back to the times of Mullah Mustafa Barzani and King Hussein bin Talal.[4] As a response to the unilateral Kurdish independence referendum in September 2017, Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi stated that the issue was an internal Iraqi affair and that Jordan did not interfere in other countries' domestic affairs.[5] The Jordanian Consul General in Erbil described ties as "strong and solid" in August 2018.[6]
