King Abdullah II of Jordan has called on the international community to work on achieving the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people to establish a sovereign and viable state on the 1967 borders with Al Quds (East Jerusalem) as its capital.
Addressing Al Quds support conference that kicked off on Sunday at the Cairo-based Arab League HQ with the participation of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Arab League Secretary General Ahmed Abul Gheit, King Abdullah said the current state requires intensifying efforts to support the Palestinian people.
He said his country continued efforts to protect the Islamic and Christian holy sites in Al Quds.
The king stressed the importance of maintaining peace on the basis of the two state solution and ending Israel’s storming operation of Aqsa mosque, pointing out that the Palestinian cause will remain on Jordan’s top priorities.
