He continued that Jordan is moving towards modernizing public administration, developing local administration, enhancing digital transformation, improving service quality, and empowering governorates and local communities to participate in determining development priorities by providing resources and capabilities, linking responsibility to accountability, and involving citizens in identifying the actual needs of their areas.
He emphasized that Jordan's message today is clear, calling for governance based on participation, development based on justice, institutions based on trust, and peace based on law and justice, not on force and imposition.
He said that His Majesty the King emphasized in his speech at the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly that respect for international rules and law and cooperation between countries has become more urgent than ever, pointing out that this message applies at the international level as well as at the national level.
He pointed out that talking about governance, justice, and the rule of law cannot be done without stopping at what is happening in the occupied Palestinian territories, and what the Palestinian people are subjected to, especially in the Gaza Strip, from killing, destruction, and humanitarian suffering, in addition to land confiscation, settlement, displacement, and violence in the West Bank, which places the international community before a historical, legal, and moral responsibility.
He went on to say that what is happening in Palestine is not a crisis separate from the security of the region, as the wars and conflicts extending in the region leave their effects on security, stability, economy, energy, water, migration, and the future of generations.
Atieh stressed that Jordan, under the leadership of His Majesty the King, has been clear in rejecting displacement and attempts to liquidate the Palestinian issue, and affirming the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and the establishment of their independent state on the borders of June 4, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
He affirmed that Jordan continues its role in protecting Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem, based on the historical Hashemite custodianship, and calling for a halt to the war, protection of civilians, and delivery of humanitarian aid.
