Eldad Angers Jordanian Officials

Statements made by MK (Ichud HaLeumi) Prof. Aryeh Eldad that the Palestinians belong in Jordan apparently angered the leaders of the Hashemite Kingdom.

Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh summoned Israel’s ambassador to Jordan to formally protest the remarks from the opposition lawmaker, which he stated are contrary to the peace agreement signed between Israel and Jordan.

Ambassador Yaakov Rosen explained the remarks are not representative of the government, but the view of an individual, adding Israel remains committed to the peace agreement. The foreign minister added his country supports the establishment of a Palestinian state, and the two-state solution.
