Taylor Luck, an Amman-based correspondent for the Christian Science Monitor, speaks about how Jordan's ties with Washington changed after President Joe Biden entered office. Taylor discusses the likelihood of Amman continuing to receive nearly $1.5 billion in annual US aid a decade from now along with questions about US involvement in Jordanian political reform. Finally, Taylor explains Jordanian attitudes toward the nearly 3,000 US troops deployed in the Hashemite Kingdom.
