Jordan announced on Sunday that it had agreed with the United States to reject the forced displacement of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip.
Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi met in Amman with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who arrived in Jordan as part of a regional tour.
The two foreign ministers discussed the “catastrophic” conditions in the Gaza Strip, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Safadi stressed the necessity of achieving an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, it added. He called any proposal to separate Gaza from the West Bank “futile.”
According to the statement, the two ministers agreed on the importance of providing immediate and sufficient aid to the Palestinian enclave.
They also rejected the displacement of Palestinians from Gaza and pointed to the necessity of allowing displaced Gazans to return to their homes, it added.
Safadi and Blinken agreed to continue efforts to stop the war and launch real and effective efforts to achieve a just peace based on a two-state solution, the statement said.
