Amman: His Majesty King Abdullah on Monday received a call from Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, and reaffirmed the need for the international community to push for an end to the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.
His Majesty warned of the escalating extremist rhetoric from Israeli officials, stressing the need for an immediate ceasefire, as well as ensuring the sustainable delivery of aid.
The King reaffirmed Jordan’s rejection of any plans to liquidate the Palestinian issue or displace Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, stressing the role of the international community in pushing for the return of Gazans to their homes.
His Majesty warned of the violence committed by extremist settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank and violations in Jerusalem, pointing to the catastrophic ramifications of a regional spillover of the conflict.
The King reiterated that Gaza cannot be separated from the West Bank, as they must both be part of the Palestinian state, stressing that military and security solut
ions will not achieve peace, but the only way to do so is to create a political horizon on the basis of the two-state solution.
