How can I get jenkins/Jfrog to pull from my own artifactory AND another remote one?

Question

I currently have artifactory set up on my jenkins pipeline correctly. I can see that it does indeed fetches artifacts but I noticed there is a few artifacts that arent being pulled. These artifacts dont seem to be in my jfrog server but i do specify in the POM file where they can be found and pulled. Here they are:

        <repository>
            <id>osgeo</id>
            <name>OSGeo Release Repository</name>
            <url>https://repo.osgeo.org/repository/release/</url>
            <snapshots><enabled>false</enabled></snapshots>
            <releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
        </repository>
        <repository>
            <id>osgeo-snapshot</id>
            <name>OSGeo Snapshot Repository</name>
            <url>https://repo.osgeo.org/repository/snapshot/</url>
            <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
            <releases><enabled>false</enabled></releases>
        </repository>

I guess maven/jenkins only checks my artifactory server and doesnt reach out to these repos at all. Is there a way where I can tell maven to not just look in my artifactory repo and also look in these repos as well? I have this snippet of code in my main pom file so im clueless as to why it doesnt pull from them.

Artifactory does reach out these remote endpoints if they are configured. Check if these "https://repo.osgeo.org/repository/snapshot" and "https://repo.osgeo.org/repository/release" are configured in the remote repository and if not, create the maven remote repositories in Artifactory and point the URL textbox to these remote endpoints. Add these 2 remote repositories in the Maven virtual repository and try to pull from Artifactory.

I prefer this option (creating a virtual repository in Artifactory) because in can work as a cache for external files. This way you can minimize time going to internet for downloading files. In your pom.xml you will need to add this repo in the repositories list. – mndrye Aug 30 '20 at 04:58
