He emphasized that in Jordan, "we are united in saying, 'We take pride in you, Your Majesty, as the leader who never compromised or bargained on the interests of your country and the issues of your nation.'" He further added, "No treasures in the world are worth even a single grain of the soil of Jordan and Palestine."
Al-Safadi made these remarks during his speech at the Arab Parliament conference in Cairo, held under the title "The Arab Document to Support the Resilience of the Palestinian People on Their Land."
He emphasized that Jordan will remain true to its commitment to the Arab nation, with Palestine being the foremost cause. He also conveyed his appreciation to the Egyptian brothers, stating that "we were pleased to see the Egyptian leadership, government, parliament, and media standing firmly with Jordan following King Abdullah II's meeting with the U.S. President." He noted that "we are, by nature, people of one cause, and the blood that runs through our veins is Arab, and we will not compromise on the causes of the Arab nation." He concluded that in the sacred fight, Cairo will always stand side by side with Amman.
Al-Safadi also spoke with pride about the recent Arab Summit in Saudi Arabia, which he described as a moment that demonstrated the unity of the Arab front and the unification of efforts. He conveyed a message of love and respect to all Arab countries, their leaders, and their people, and reaffirmed Jordan's steadfast support for Arab issues.
He also highlighted the importance of Jordan’s unwavering position on issues like the preservation of Jerusalem’s sacred sites, noting Jordan’s deep-rooted history and commitment to defending the Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem. He reaffirmed the stance of King Abdullah II, saying, "No to displacement, no to settlement, no to the alternative homeland."
Al-Safadi stated that the message of King Abdullah II is clear and unambiguous: Jordan rejects all proposals related to displacement, standing firm behind its leader with the unyielding support of the people, and backed by the courageous positions of other Arab leaders. He reiterated that they are united in defending the rights of the Palestinian people and stressed, "Gaza belongs to its people, and no displacement of its residents will be allowed. The occupying forces must realize that falsehood will eventually fade, no matter how long oppression lasts."
Al-Safadi emphasized that the Palestinian cause is facing one of the most difficult turning points in its history, which will have profound effects on the entire region. He affirmed that peace and stability cannot be achieved without a just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian issue, one that guarantees the establishment of a fully sovereign Palestinian state. He supported the Egyptian plan discussed by King Abdullah II with the U.S. President, highlighting its alignment with the Arab solution and the avoidance of internationalization, which has historically exacerbated the region's crises.
He concluded by urging Arab nations to unite and address the dire challenges they face, focusing on development, improving living conditions, and combating poverty in the Arab world, emphasizing that such progress is only possible through unity and cooperation.
Al-Safadi also led a parliamentary delegation in preparatory meetings for the Arab Parliament to draft a charter with 17 provisions that reject the displacement of Palestinians, affirm the Palestinian right to an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital, and outline parliamentary steps to gain international support for the Palestinian cause. The delegation included members such as Ihsan Barakat, Saleh Al-Armouti, Suleiman Saud, Suleiman Al-Zaban, Hammoud Al-Zawahra, Huda Al-Atoum, Aref Al-Sa'ida, Tayseer Abu Arabi, Salem Abu Dula, Mohammad Bani Malhem, and Khaled Bani Atiya.
