Safadi also stressed that Jordan will continue its uninterrupted efforts to maintain calm and progress towards achieving a just and lasting peace on the basis of the two-state solution that embodies the independent and sovereign Palestinian state on the June 4, 1967 borders, with occupied Jerusalem as its capital, to co-exist in security and peace alongside Israel in accordance with international law and the Arab peace initiative.
He said that Jordan is reaching out to everyone, including the Israeli government, in order to find the political horizon required for progress towards a just peace, to prevent a recurrence of the recent escalation and its causes, and to stop all measures that undermine the two-state solution and the chances of achieving a just peace, stressing that the situation cannot continue as it is.
In response to a question about the issue of sedition, Safadi said that Jordan’s stability is solid and sedition was nipped in the bud before it posed any threat to the security of the Kingdom, noting that the issue was dealt with according to the Jordanian approach characterized by calm and wisdom.
Safadi added that Jordan is now focusing on everything that is basic and necessary for its future and interests, namely the political reform that His Majesty the King formed a royal committee to modernise, as well as economic reform that addresses economic challenges, ensures better performance of the Jordanian economy, fights poverty and creates job opportunities.
