Jordan's King Renews Rejection of Displacement of Palestinians, Calls for Sustaining Ceasefire in Gaza

Jordan's King Abdullah II reiterated on Sunday his rejection of the displacement of Palestinians, stressing the importance of ensuring the sustainability of the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.


This came during his meeting in Amman with a delegation from the US Congress headed by Senator Richard Blumenthal, according to a statement by the Royal Court.


According to the statement, the King stressed during the meeting the "importance of the strategic partnership between Jordan and the United States, and the keenness to strengthen it in all areas."


He also stressed the pivotal role played by the United States in supporting efforts to achieve a just and comprehensive peace in the region based on the two-state solution (Palestinian and Israeli).


The King reiterated Jordan's position rejecting any attempts to annex Palestinian territories or displace Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank.


He called for "ensuring the sustainability of the ceasefire in Gaza, and strengthening the international humanitarian response."


On Tuesday, Egypt announced its intention to put forward a vision for the reconstruction of Gaza that guarantees the survival of the Palestinian people on their land, and in a manner consistent with the legitimate and legal rights of this people.


On February 4, US President Donald Trump revealed during a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House that his country intends to seize Gaza after displacing the Palestinians from it to other countries, including Egypt and Jordan.


In line with Trump's plan, the Israeli government has begun preparing a plan that it claims aims for the "voluntary departure" of Palestinians from Gaza.


Trump's plan for Gaza was widely rejected by Palestinians, Arabs and the international community, while it was met with great praise at the political level in Israel, including various trends.


On January 19, the agreement went into effect. It includes 3 stages, each lasting 42 days. During the first, negotiations will be held to begin the second stage, with the mediation of Egypt and Qatar and the support of the United States.
