AMMAN – Member of the Reform Bloc,
MP Ahmad Al-Qatawneh, stated that the resignation of the bloc's members from the House
of Representatives is on the table and under discussion if the government does
not use the pressure cards it has, including canceling the Wadi Araba
agreement, American bases as well as gas and water deals.

According to Jo24
Al-Qatawneh said that
withdrawing the ambassador was a good start but more measures were needed to
stop the
massacres committed by the Zionist entity in Gaza. He pointed out that
canceling agreements is a way to protect Jordan, given Israel's non-compliance
with the signed agreements.
Al-Qatawneh stated that the deliberate
targeting of civilians is part of a policy of displacement that the occupation
is committing, and emptying the land. These are systematic steps, and it will
come later to Jordan. The government must take action against what is happening
in Gaza, such as cutting off water and electricity and suspending the signed
agreements.
He questioned the role of Arab armies and the
money spent on arming them annually. Why is it not used against the Zionist
enemy, and how long will the armies watch the massacres of Gaza's children?
Al-Qatawneh criticized the lack of any serious
steps by the House of Representatives to
stop the massacres in Gaza and support
the Palestinian people. He stressed that what is required from the council is
not just a discussion but practical steps, including discussing the peace
agreement in the first session for a vote on its cancellation.
He concluded his statement by saying,
"Jordan has pressure cards, and we must use them. We should not be
satisfied with withdrawing the Jordanian ambassador from there. We have a
precedent when the Zionist enemy attempted to assassinate Khalid Mashaal. King
Hussein threatened to cancel the agreement if his life was not saved."
