Amman said to reject US proposal for Jordanian-Palestinian confederation
Amman reportedly rejects the US Middle East peace plan proposed by Trump administration officials that calls for the creation of a Palestinian-Jordanian confederation.
“The establishment of a confederation is not something that we willing discuss,” the government says in a statement according to Channel 10 news.
“The Jordanian position remains the same: a two-state solution to the conflict with the establishment of a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.”
