Isabel Santos, head of the delegation, stated during a press conference that the dialogue with Jordan will be strengthened in the coming years, emphasizing Jordan's key partnership with the European Union in the region.

The continuous Israeli aggression on Gaza has led to "real animosity" towards Israel among the people in the region, according to the delegation.

The delegation emphasized the need to stop the war, stating that the European Union is committed to achieving lasting peace based on the two-state solution. At the same time acknowledging Jordan’s sole custodianship of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem 

Jordan was commended on its role in hosting Palestinian and Syrian refugees while initiating economic reforms, focusing on economic modernization, public sector development, justice enhancement, and democratic reforms.

During their visit to Jordan, the delegation visited multiple UN-based refugee camps: a school run by UNRWA east of Amman and the Azraq refugee camp managed by the UN Refugee Agency. They witnessed the camps’ growing resource shortages.

The European Parliament maintains an ongoing dialogue with Jordan and other countries in the region to find a possible solution for the situation in occupied Palestine, emphasizing the necessity for all involved parties to sit down and reach peaceful agreements.
