The Arab Ba'ath Progressive Party (Arabic: حزب البعث العربي التقدمي Ḥizb al-Baʿṯ al-ʿArabī t-Taqaddumī, Arabic pronunciation: [ˈħiz.b‿al.ˈbaʕ.θ‿al.ˈʕa.ra.bi‿t.ta.ˈqad.du.miː]) was a political party in Jordan. It operated as the Jordanian regional branch of the Syrian-led Ba'ath Party.[3]
It was legally registered for the first time in 1993. The party was small, but despite it small size, the branch was able to get a decent footprint in Jordanian media through its leader, Fuad Dabbour. The party was less known than its pro-Iraqi counterpart, the Jordanian Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party.[4] Fuad Dabbour was the party's Regional Secretary.[5] It was dissolved in 2023.[2]
