Senate President Faisal Fayez said on Tuesday that any proposals to settle the Palestinian issue that are not based on the two-state solution and international legitimacy resolutions are futile and unacceptable.

He said as he welcomed Palestinian National Council Speaker Rawhi Fattouh that any proposal should meet the Palestinian people’s right to set up an independent state on Palestinian national soil with Jerusalem as its capital.

Fayez emphasized that the Palestinian cause will remain a top Jordanian priority and that the Kingdom will remain the closest to Palestine and on the side of its people in their struggle for freedom and independence.

The head of the Palestinian National Council said the Palestinian leadership appreciates Jordan’s support of the Palestinians and His Majesty King Abdullah’s reiteration that any settlement should fulfill their legitimate, historical and legal rights.
