BARCELONA: Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi called for a sustained peace in Gaza and reaffirmed support for the two-state solution during the 10th Regional Forum of Foreign Ministers of the Union for the Mediterranean, which ended Friday.
Co-chaired with European Commission Vice President Kaja Kallas, the forum was hosted by Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares and attended by foreign ministers and heads of delegations from UfM member states, alongside representatives of European and regional institutions.
Speaking at the forum, Safadi warned that “the promise of peace, prosperity and cooperation has been shattered by a brutal occupation whose inhumane nature has been exposed in the most horrific ways during two years of genocide in Gaza.”
He highlighted escalations and violations in the occupied West Bank, noting that 32,000 Palestinians had been displaced recently, alongside settlement expansion, land confiscation and the strangulation of the Palestinian economy.
“The two-state solution remains the only path to a just and comprehensive peace,” he said, stressing alignment with international law and the Arab Peace Initiative.
