Palestine recognition ‘important step towards two-state solution’: Jordan

Jordan's Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi welcomed the coordinated move by Ireland, Norway and Spain to recognise Palestine as a state as an “important and essential step towards Palestinian statehood”.

“We value this decision and consider it an important and essential step towards a two-state solution that embodies an independent, sovereign Palestinian state along the July 1967 borders,” he told a news conference on Wednesday.
