Jordan’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Ayman Safadi recently made a bold statement, reaffirming Jordan’s refusal to send forces to Gaza as replacements for the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF). In a press conference with Greek counterpart Georgios Katrougalos, Safadi emphasized Jordan’s stance of not cleaning up after Netanyahu’s government’s aggression. He criticized Israel’s lack of commitment to regional peace and emphasized the necessity of a two-state solution to prevent further violence.
Safadi also condemned the IOF’s actions in the West Bank and highlighted Jordan’s role in protecting Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem. Additionally, he expressed Jordan’s support for international efforts to secure a ceasefire in Gaza and called for a comprehensive approach to address the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.
Overall, Safadi’s statements underscore Jordan’s commitment to peace and justice in the region and its refusal to engage militarily in addressing the consequences of Israeli aggression.
