Jordan's Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi delivered a scathing rebuke of ‘Israel’ during an emergency session of the UN Security Council convened to discuss the recent ‘Israeli’ attack on Qatar.

 

Safadi described the ‘Israeli’ government as "a rogue government, stained with the blood of innocents, driven by extremism and hatred, that neither cares for international law nor is deterred by human values."

 

He accused ‘Israel’ of seeing itself as "above the law" and relying on "oppression to enforce a racist ideology and achieve expansionist goals that threaten peace and security in the region and the world."

 

A Catastrophic Toll and Broad Aggression

Safadi detailed the human cost of the conflict, stating that over the last 23 months, ‘Israel’ has killed more than 65,000 Palestinians in Gaza, along with 540 humanitarian aid workers and 247 journalists. He accused ‘Israel’ of using starvation as a weapon, which he said has led to the deaths of 411 Palestinians, including 142 children, in Gaza.

 

The minister also said ‘Israel’ is destabilizing Lebanon and occupying more Syrian land, while also creating "strife aimed at plunging Syria into chaos and conflict."

 

He described the attack on Qatar's capital, Doha, as a "blatant violation of international law" and a "cowardly attack" on a state that has worked tirelessly with Egypt and the United States to reach a ceasefire deal.

 

Safadi accused the ‘Israeli’ government and its extremists of "lying in all their claims to justify their treachery against Qatar."

 

A Call for Action and Accountability

Safadi called on the Security Council to act immediately, stating it is time for the international community to "curb its arrogance and protect the entire region from its catastrophic actions."

 

He urged the council to use the tools at its disposal to enforce international law and the UN Charter.

 

"Apply international law and the UN Charter, which form the basis of your legitimacy. Use these tools to enforce the acceptance of the exchange deal that Qatar, Egypt, and the United States have worked on. Use them to stop the aggression on Gaza, to end the starvation, to enforce the entry of humanitarian aid," he said.

 

Safadi said the council must "protect what remains of the credibility of international law and international humanitarian law, to restore faith that human values and international law were created to be applied without discrimination or selectivity."

 

He stated that ‘Israel’ is killing all opportunities for peace by expanding illegal settlements, protecting what he called "settler terrorists," and besieging the Palestinian people.

 

Safadi noted that just hours before the session, the ‘Israeli’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu boasted about authorizing a new illegal settlement and preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state.

 

A Shared Vision for Peace

Safadi affirmed that Jordan and Qatar share a vision for a safe and stable Middle East. "Our security and Qatar's security are one. And Qatar's stability and the region's stability are one," he said.

 

He stated that the Arab Peace Initiative has been waiting for a positive ‘Israeli’ response since 2002. He also pushed back on the ‘Israeli’ government's claim that they are surrounded by enemies, asserting that all Arab states are committed to a just and lasting peace based on a two-state solution.

 

"We want a just peace," Safadi said. "But the reality is that there is no Israeli partner now to work on achieving it."

 

Safadi concluded by saying ‘Israel’ has made Gaza "a land of death" and is engaging in a "genocidal war."

 

He ended his speech with a plea: "Injustice has gone too far. End it. End it before it's too late."
