Jordan criticizes settlement bid east of Jerusalem
The Jordanian government today condemned the Israeli occupation's issuance of tenders to build 1,234 settlement units in the "E1" project east of occupied Jerusalem, considering it a violation of international law and the Palestinian people's right to self-determination and to establish their independent state within the 1967 borders. Ambassador Fouad Maghali stressed that this Israeli expansion threatens the two-state solution efforts and undermines international legitimacy, emphasizing that Israel has no sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian territories. He called on the international community to assume its responsibilities to halt the illegal Israeli settlement expansion and to support the rights of Palestinians to establish their independent state.
