Jordan has survived the Arab Spring relatively unscathed, at least so far.
Perhaps it is because the king has promised reform.
But he is now on his fourth prime minister since the start of 2011 and the changes proposed so far won't do enough to satisfy his critics.
They say King Abdullah is just buying time and is not serious about reform.
And this in a country seen as critical to peace in the region not least because of its troubled neighbours, Syria and Israel.
So how much time does Jordan have to sort itself out?
Nasser Judeh, foreign minister of Jordan, talks to Sarah Montague.
