Senate’s Palestine Committee Underlines Rejection of Palestinian Displacement

Amman, January 27 (Petra) – The Palestine Committee in the Senate reiterated on Monday its unequivocal rejection of all forms of displacement targeting Palestinians, denouncing any measures aimed at undermining their legitimate rights.

In a statement, the committee condemned recent remarks circulating regarding the deportation of residents from Gaza, viewing them as part of broader attempts to “erase the Palestinian cause and thwart aspirations for an independent Palestinian state.”

The committee emphasized the importance of aligning with His Majesty King Abdullah II and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II in countering efforts by the Israeli far-right to impose its agenda through distortions of history and geography.

The statement highlighted the risks of displacement and its grave repercussions for both Jordan and Palestine, affirming Jordan’s unwavering stance that “Jordan is for Jordanians, and Palestine is for Palestinians.”

The committee commended His Majesty’s enduring efforts spanning more than 25 years on both regional and international fronts in defending Palestinian self-determination and the establishment of an independent state within the pre-June 4, 1967, borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Referring to Jordan’s historical role, the committee underscored the legacy of the Hashemite family, tracing its efforts back to the leadership of Sharif Hussein, whose Arab Revolution championed independence and unity across the Arab world.

The committee reiterated Jordan’s steadfast position in supporting a just and lasting peace based on the two-state solution, ensuring Palestinian rights. It also rejected all policies that exert pressure or undermine the rights of Palestinians, condemning attempts by the Israeli far-right to achieve its objectives through war and starvation in Gaza.
