JAKARTA - The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the seizure of land belonging to the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Silwan City, East Jerusalem, by Israel.
The WAFA news agency reported Saturday, June 20, that Jordan called the seizure a "flagrant violation" of international law, international humanitarian law, and the "historical and legal status quo."
Spokesperson for the Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Fuad Al-Majali, said Jordan firmly rejects all unilateral and illegal actions and provocative practices aimed at changing the historical and legal status quo in Jerusalem and its holy places.
Al-Majali stressed that Israel has no sovereignty over occupied Jerusalem or the Islamic and Christian holy sites in the city.
He urged the international community to shoulder its legal and moral responsibilities and encourage Israel to stop all illegal actions in Jerusalem.
He also called on Israel to end violations of the historical and legal status quo at Islamic and Christian holy sites and to respect the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.
Al-Majali reiterated that the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state in the Palestinian territories remains the only way to achieve a just and comprehensive peace that guarantees the security and stability of the region.
