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]) is a political party in Jordan. It is the Jordanian regional branch of the Syrian-led Ba'ath Party.[2] It was legally registered for the first time in 1993. The party is small, but despite it small size, the branch is able to get a decent footprint in Jordanian media through its leader, Fuad Dabbour. Dabbour's fiery statements on foreign policy are frequently quoted by the press.[citation needed] The party is less known than its pro-Iraqi counterpart, the Jordanian Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party.[3] Fuad Dabbour is the branch's Regional Secretary.[4]
Political platform
The party's stated objectives are:
- The struggle for the supremacy and institutionalization of democracy as well as the rule of law and constitution.[1]

- Adherence to the monotheistic religions and respect of the national heritage and the Arab nation’s unity.[1]
- Consolidation of the democratic system and the achievement of Arab economic integration.[1]
