AMMAN — Chairman of the
Jordanian–European Parliamentary Friendship Association Khaldoun Hina has
stressed that Jordan supports the right of the Palestinian people to
self-determination and independence on their national soil along pre-June 4,
1967 lines.
This came during the association's meeting
Sunday with Aranzazu Banon Davalos, the Spanish ambassador to the Kingdom,
where they discussed ways to deepen Jordanian-Spanish relations, according to
Jordan News Agency, Petra.
Hina underlined the importance of the
Hashemite custodianship of holy sites in Jerusalem, stating that His Majesty
King Abdullah has recently restored the momentum of the Palestinian cause at
international and regional forums.
He said Jordan lives in the heart of an
inflamed region and focuses its efforts on addressing multiple challenges,
calling on Spain to help Jordan reduce unemployment, which has reached a high
rate among young people due to the pandemic.
For her part, the Spanish ambassador said that
her country and Jordan share many views, especially on the Palestinian issue,
stressing the need to find a just and comprehensive solution for the people of
the region to enjoy peace and stability.
Davalos added that Jordan can be a
distinguished tourist destination in the region because it has attractive
tourist sites, such as the ancient city of Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea, among
others.
Davalos also spoke of a 50 million
euro grant dedicated to fighting COVID-19 in the Kingdom.
