🇯🇴 Jordan - King Addresses United Nations General Debate, 78th Session |

Abdullah II Ibn Al Hussein King, addresses the general debate of the 78th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 19 - 26 September 2023).
---------
ABDULLAH II IBN AL HUSSEIN, King of Jordan, said that more than 345 million people face food insecurity, daily hunger, or starvation. Among the most vulnerable are 108 million refugees. And 40 per cent of these refugees are children. “Yet these numbers cannot really convey the tragedy,” he said. Refugees are mothers, fathers and grandparents, who have made perilous journeys to save their families. They are young people with big dreams, and little children who deserve the chance to dream big. They depend on the international community for their survival, and multiple UN agencies provide vital services to help meet the need. “But in recent months, one by one, these agencies have been delivering difficult news - a severe shortfall in international funds has forced them to cut support,” he said.
In Jordan, where refugees make up over one third of the 11 million population, cuts have already thrown the lives of hundreds of thousands of refugees into uncertainty, he continued. “Fear and want bring on sharp increases in the number of refugees fleeing to Europe and beyond, on journeys that too often end in tragedy,” he said. Jordan has done everything to secure a dignified life for refugees. Nearly half of the almost 1.4 million Syrians it hosts are under 18 years of age. For many of these young people, Jordan is the only place they have ever known. Over 230,000 Syrian children have been born in Jordan since 2011. “We are sharing precious resources to help them meet basic needs - food, energy, and especially water,” he said. Jordan is among the water-poorest countries in the world. It faces these pressures just when another crisis has hit the region: climate change.
“Syrian refugees’ future is in their country, not in host countries,” he added. And the fact is refugees are far from returning. On the contrary, more Syrians are likely to leave their country as the crisis persists. And Jordan will not have the ability nor the resources to host and care for more. Jordan’s case is a microcosm of the entire region, which, he said, will continue to suffer until the world “helps lift the shadow” of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. “Without clarity on where Palestinians’ future lies, it will be impossible to converge on a political solution to this conflict,” he said. Five million Palestinians live under occupation with no say in their lives. Yet every UN resolution since the beginning of the conflict recognizes the equal rights of the Palestinian people to a future of peace, dignity and hope.
“We can see the Israeli people actively defending and engaging in the expression of their national identity. Yet, the Palestinian people are deprived of that same right,” he continued. The basic requirement for that right is the establishment of their own independent and viable State, on 1967 lines with East Jerusalem as its capital. For its part, Jordan remains committed to safeguarding Jerusalem’s identity, he continued, also urging sustainable funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). “We must protect young Palestinians from extremists who prey on their frustrations and hopelessness by making sure they continue to learn at schools under the blue flag of the United Nations, as the alternative will be the black flags of terror, hate and extremism,” he stressed.
---------
The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the Organization. Comprising all Member States, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter of the United Nations. Each of the 193 Member States of the United Nations has an equal vote.
The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.
The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world.
But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.

Wonderful leader and elequently spoken. Jordan is an admirable country in many respects, not the least of which is because of its humanitarian commitment to displaced persons. As a country surrounded by conflict, it has done an admirable job preserving peace and fostering development. Much admiration.

His majesty is by far one of the best speakers at the general assembly. His charisma, and diction is impeccable.

I love the beautiful country the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and the lovely and friendly Jordanians. I worked in the Yarmouk University in Irbid and then in their main campus which is called Jordan University of Science and Technology the huge campus in Ramtha near Irbid. I was so happy to spend so many years in Irbid Jordan. Participated in their local programes specially the Jerash Festival conducted by the Yarmouk University each year. I loved to hear the speach of Majesty King Hussein in so many occasions on television and enjoyed listening from the beginning till the end. I have visited the beautiful and religious places like Madaba and Jerusalem in the occupied territory. Fully enjoyed living in Jordan and loved the tasty and rich delicious hommos phool phelafil and the kathayeff and the readily made sandwiches of kobbus. My sincere and heartfull thanks to all the lovely people of the lovely country Jo

[@joes3256]

The king is thankful for the welcome but asks of his hosts to take action on ending the occupation of Palestine and resolving the multiple refugee crises. Unfortunately Washington and by extention the UN cant do anything to stop the colonization of Palestinian land, and the continued suffering of refugees banned from returning home. This is a festering wound and a crime against humanity and it is being perpetrated by the ignorant and manipulated decision makers and their blind support of zionism. Implementation of UN resolutions 242 and 338 would end the suffering and continued instability. Question is, will anyone listen? Or will a new visiting king 100 years from now keep reminding his hosts of the urgency for justice to solve problem at the root. It really is shameful how much of a grip the lobbies have on America and how often they lead to perpetuation of injustices for the pleasure and benefit of a criminal colonizing few. Free Palestine
