Jordan confirms Israeli Ambassador left the kingdom
AMMONNEWS - Israel's envoy in Jordan left Jordan last week, the Jordanian government confirmed on Wednesday.
In a press conference held on Wednesday, Minister of State for Media Affairs and Communications Mohammad Momani officially confirmed that Israeli Ambassador to Jordan Daniel Nevo had departed back to Israel last Wednesday, after he was summoned by the Jordanian Foreign Ministry to relay Jordan's condemnation of Israeli violations in occupied Jerusalem.
Momani told Ammon News on Tuesday that all Jordanian official options are subject to consideration, including political, diplomatic, and legal actions, in addressing the Israeli aggression and violations committed against Al Aqsa Mosque and the occupied territories.
The Minister noted that the government did not take any decision to oust Israel's Ambassador in Amman, Daniel Nevo, or recall Jordan's Ambassador in Tel Aviv Walid Obeidat.
Momani reiterated that the Jordanian government relayed a 'strongly-worded message' when it summoned the Israeli Ambassador last Wednesday, stressing that Jordan strongly denounces Israeli violations that 'must stop immediately.'
Earlier on Tuesday, Momani said that the Jordanian government has not considered ousting the Israeli ambassador in Jordan or recalling its ambassador from Tel Aviv per the parliament's request.
The Minister's statements come two-days after 87 MPs threatened to the parliament's vote-of-confidence it had granted Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour's government last month if the latter does not take any measures to expel the Israeli ambassador from Amman.
Several MPs later reportedly withdrew from the motion to censure confidence in the government, which initially enjoyed a majority-backing.
In response to escalating Israeli violations in occupied Jerusalem and Al Aqsa Mosque, members of the Lower House voted unanimously last Wednesday to ask the government to expel the Israeli ambassador and recall Jordan's ambassador from Tel Aviv.
Several MPs called for annulling the 1994 'Wadi Araba' peace treaty between Jordan and Israel in reaction to Israeli actions in the occupied territories.
Jordan's Foreign Ministry on Wednesday reacted to developments in occupied Jerusalem by summoning Israeli Ambassador Daniel Nevo.
Deputy Foreign Minister and Interior Minister Hussein Majali reportedly gave Nevo a 'strongly worded message' to deliver to Israel on Jordan's condemnation of violations being committed, including the brief detention of the Mufti of Jerusalem and the storming of Jewish settlers into Al Aqsa Mosque yard facilitated by Israeli guards.
Israeli forces also prevented Muslim worshippers under the age of 50 from entering Al Aqsa Mosque last week.
