Amman: King Abdullah II of Jordan reiterated that Jordan will not be a battleground for any party and will not tolerate any threats to the lives of its people, a statement said.

The king made the remarks on Sunday during a meeting in Amman with a delegation of US Congress.

At the meeting, the king called for efforts to de-escalate the situation in the region and reach comprehensive calm in order to prevent a full-out regional war, according to a statement by the Royal Hashemite Court.

The king said the region will remain vulnerable to an expansion of the conflict that threatens its stability as long as the war on Gaza continues, urging for enhanced international efforts to stop the war by reaching an immediate and permanent ceasefire, according to the statement.

He stressed the importance of creating a political horizon to achieve just and comprehensive peace on the basis of the two-state solution, which is the only way to guarantee the security of the Palestinians, the Israelis, and the entire region.

The Jordanian leader also called for maintaining support for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees in the Near East
