Jordan says extremism a result of no Palestinian state
Jordan’s foreign minister says that Palestinian statehood is the most important issue now facing the world and that it fuels extremism gripping the Mideast.
Nasser Judeh makes the comment on Tuesday at the Arab Media Forum, an event taking place in Dubai, the commercial hub of the United Arab Emirates.
Judeh says the “Palestinian cause represents the essence of the conflicts and crises in the region.”
He adds that “every day of delay where the international community does not exert pressure toward reaching a fair and just settlement of the Palestinian cause, will lead to another day of darkness where the forces of extremism and terrorism can act. Then humanity as a whole will pay the price.”
