§ 70. Sir L. Plummerasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what are the definitions of aggression which Her Majesty's Government have agreed with the Government of Jordan which would justify the participation of this country in a war in which Jordan is involved.
§ Mr. NuttingNo definition of aggression as such has been agreed with the Jordan Government. According to the Anglo-Jordan Treaty, 1948, either party will come to the aid of the other as a measure of collective defence if the latter becomes engaged in war after efforts to settle a dispute by peaceful means have failed. This is without prejudice to the rights and obligations of either party under the United Nations Charter.
