Throne Speech at Opening
King Abdullah II opened the third ordinary session of the twentieth Parliament on Monday, affirming that Jordan would confront terrorism and protect its security and unity. He praised the role of the armed forces and security agencies, as well as the solidarity of Jordanians. He reiterated the Kingdom’s support for the rights of the Palestinian people, warning of the continuing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and attacks in the West Bank and Jerusalem. He stressed that security and stability could not be achieved without Palestinians’ right to their land being fulfilled. The King called on Parliament to serve the public interest and oversee government performance, affirming that citizens’ interests must be at the heart of decision-making and that major projects should be accelerated as part of the economic modernisation agenda. He also stressed the priority of water security and sustainable resource management, as well as the rule of law and accountability for anyone who abuses their position.
