Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said today, Wednesday, that Jordan was and will continue to stand by the Palestinians in order to stop the Israeli practices that deprive the Palestinian people of exercising their full rights.

Al-Safadi said during a session in the House of Representatives: "Instead of the whole international debate becoming that Jordan withdrew its ambassador and expelled the Israeli ambassador , we wanted the international community to remain focused on Israel's measures and aggressions."

He added, "Jordanian diplomacy is aware of the extent of the danger that Israel is posing in the occupied Palestinian territories, and has worked and is working continuously to stop all Israeli measures and violations against the Palestinians."

Al-Safadi indicated that Jordan has made extensive efforts to put an end to what Israel is doing, noting that Jordan is currently dealing with the conflict according to a political approach, and Jordan offers the interests of the Palestinians, and it will not hesitate for a moment to take everything that would help the Palestinian brothers.

He stressed that ending the Israeli occupation is the only way to achieve peace in the region, and we will not accept anything less than respecting the historical and legal status quo in the sanctities of Jerusalem.

He said: "If it weren't for the Hashemite tutelage, Israel would have fully imposed its sovereignty over the Islamic and Christian holy sites in occupied Jerusalem."
