Amman - Saba:
Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said today, Thursday, "If there are any attempts to forcibly displace Palestinians to Jordan, we will confront them with all our capabilities, and this is a declaration of war for Jordan, and we will fight."
Safadi added in a television interview: "There are matters that cannot be stopped at; because this undermines the Jordanian state and undermines the Palestinians' ambition to obtain a state in their land."
He continued, saying: "Displacing Palestinians from the West Bank to Jordan means transferring the crisis that the occupation created and is exacerbating, which will not end until it ends, to Jordan."
Earlier on Wednesday, Jordanian King Abdullah II stressed his country's rejection of any attempts to displace the Palestinian people from the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank, following US President Donald Trump's call to displace the people of Gaza.
