Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi says Israel’s assault on Gaza has caused “massacres and starvation” and that its wider actions are “killing all prospects” for peace in the Middle East, Al Jazeera reports.
Addressing Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov at a meeting in Moscow, Safadi said he hoped to discuss “efforts to end the aggression on Gaza, and the massacres and starvation that it is creating”.
This was in addition to the “illegal measures that continue to undermine the two-state solution and kill all prospects for peace in the region”, he added.
“We value your clear position against the war and your demand for reaching a permanent ceasefire,” he told Lavrov.
