‘Jordan is for Jordanians, and Palestine is for Palestinians,' Ayman Safadi says

Jordan reiterated its rejection of the resettlement of Palestinians on Sunday, after US President Donald Trump's call to “clean out” the Gaza Strip.

"Our principles are clear, and Jordan's steadfast position to uphold the Palestinians' presence on their land remains unchanged and will never change," Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi told a joint press conference in Amman with Sigrid Kaag, UN Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for Gaza.

Jordan's rejection of resettlement “is steadfast and essential for achieving the stability and peace we all seek,” he said.

"The solution to the Palestinian issue lies in Palestine; Jordan is for Jordanians, and Palestine is for Palestinians,” Safadi added.

Describing Gaza as a "demolition site," Trump called on Saturday to “just clear out” the Palestinian enclave and resettle Palestinians in Jordan and Egypt.
