Amman, May 24 (Petra) — Jordan has continued to strengthen its
reputation as a balanced and influential regional player under the
leadership of His Majesty King Abdullah II, pursuing a foreign policy
built on moderation, dialogue, and strategic diplomacy.

At a time of growing instability across the Middle East and shifting
international dynamics, the Kingdom has maintained steady political
positions while reinforcing its role as a trusted partner on the
global stage.

Jordanian diplomacy has focused on building constructive
international relationships and promoting political solutions to
regional crises, while remaining firmly committed to defending Arab
and Islamic causes, particularly the Palestinian issue.

The Kingdom has consistently advocated for peace based on the
two-state solution, supporting the establishment of an independent
Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, alongside
preserving the historic Hashemite custodianship over Jerusalem’s
Islamic and Christian holy sites.

Political and diplomatic figures emphasized that Jordan’s balanced
approach has enabled it to maintain strong relations with countries
across the world while preserving its central role in Middle Eastern
affairs.

Palestinian Ambassador to Amman Atallah Khairi said Jordan’s foreign
policy reflects wisdom, realism, and consistency, adding that the
Kingdom continues to defend Palestinian rights while promoting
regional peace and stability.

Khairi noted that King Abdullah II is widely respected
internationally for his credibility and pragmatic approach to
conflict resolution, particularly regarding efforts to achieve a
comprehensive and just peace in the Middle East. He said the King’s
calls for coexistence, development, and cooperation among the
region’s peoples have gained broad international support because they
reject violence and extremism.

He also highlighted Jordan’s resilience in the face of regional
unrest, saying the country has preserved its unity, stability, and
sovereignty through the strong relationship between the Hashemite
leadership and the Jordanian people.

Secretary-General of the World Forum for Moderation Marwan Al-Faouri
said Jordan has succeeded in presenting a political and diplomatic
model that combines steadfast principles with flexibility and realism
in dealing with regional and global developments. He stressed that
the Kingdom has remained committed to defending Palestinian rights
and rejecting any attempts to undermine the Palestinian cause or
impose solutions at Jordan’s expense.

According to Al-Faouri, Jordan has continued to play an active role
in international forums, advocating dialogue, respect for
international law, and peaceful resolutions to conflicts across the
region despite increasing political polarization and instability.

Former Ambassador Lina Arfaat also underlined Jordan’s ability to
preserve its strategic balance amid mounting regional and
international challenges. She said Jordanian diplomacy has protected
the Kingdom’s interests through moderation, openness, and a
consistent commitment to dialogue and political solutions.

Arfaat added that Jordan has maintained its position as a respected
voice for stability and reason internationally while continuing to
support Arab causes diplomatically and politically, especially the
Palestinian issue, which she described as a core national interest
for Jordan.

She also pointed to Jordan’s expanding humanitarian role,
particularly in delivering medical and relief assistance during
regional crises and humanitarian emergencies.

Despite limited resources, she said, Jordan continues to play a
leading role in supporting regional stability and humanitarian
efforts, drawing on its longstanding political legacy rooted in
moderation, balance, and respect for human dignity.
