Biden speaks in favour of Jordan during his meet with the monarch

 


In a meeting with Jordanian King Abdullah II at the White House on Thursday, President Joe Biden emphasised his support for the legal "status quo" of the Al-Aqsa mosque compound in Jerusalem.

The US president "reaffirmed the close, enduring nature of the partnership between the United States and Jordan" during a private lunch with Biden, the king, and Crown Prince Hussein, the White House said.

Biden reiterated "the fundamental need to preserve the historic status quo" in reference to escalating tensions surrounding the Al-Aqsa mosque, which is situated near a location revered by both Muslims and Jews in Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem.

According to a statement from the White House, Biden also acknowledged Jordan's "crucial role as the custodian of Muslim sacred places in Jerusalem."

Regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Biden reaffirmed US support for "a two-state solution" and thanked King Abdullah for "their close partnership and the role they both play as a force for stability in the Middle East."

Jews, who refer to the complex as the Temple Mount, regard the Al-Aqsa mosque as their most sacred location, making it the third-holiest place in Islam.

Non-Muslims are currently only permitted to visit the location at particular hours but are not permitted to pray there.

Growing numbers of Jews, mostly Israeli nationalists, have been secretly praying at the compound in recent years, infuriating Palestinians. The national security minister of Israel's new far-right government paid a personal visit to the location in January, drawing a barrage of criticism from around the world.

“Iraq is Utilizing What They Have Right Now”

Here’s something good that I want to share with what I read today. It’s about  how Iraq utilizes a decentralized arrangement of administration, the Gulf countries and their organizations can investigate such financial possibilities with different individual Iraqi governorates, directed by the national government. This can likewise make a sound rivalry among Iraqi governorates to offer better costs and more good arrangements with Gulf organizations, as the two sides advantage. For me, Iraq needs huge monetary and monetary support. Monetary guide bundles can just reduce some tension on the present moment. Aside from Iran, there is insignificant territorial interest in Iraq's private area. Tehran's interest in Iraq has not given remarkable monetary advantages, for the most part because of authorizations. Inlet countries ought to investigate Iraq as a feasible competitor for their business ventures, and they can even use Jordan as a middle person to shape a solid financial ternio...
