Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi took a firm stance against Iran’s alleged interference in Jordan’s internal affairs by summoning the Iranian ambassador to protest against recent comments made in Iran’s official media. The comments warned that Jordan would be the next target if it cooperated with Israel in a potential showdown with Iran.
Safadi condemned the Iranian comments, describing them as unacceptable and a violation of Jordan’s sovereignty. In response, he summoned the Iranian ambassador to convey Jordan’s protest and make it clear that such interference would not be tolerated.
The protest was confirmed by Jordan’s state-owned Mamlaka public broadcaster, further underscoring the seriousness with which the Jordanian government viewed the situation. Safadi reiterated Jordan’s commitment to its own national interests and maintaining stability in the region.
The tensions between Iran and Jordan have been escalating in recent months, with Jordan increasingly concerned about Iran’s growing influence in the region. Jordan has made it clear that it will not allow any outside interference in its affairs and will continue to prioritize its own security and stability.
The diplomatic dispute between Jordan and Iran is likely to have ongoing implications for the region as both countries navigate their complex relationships with each other and with other regional players. The protest by Jordan’s Foreign Minister sends a strong message that Jordan will not hesitate to push back against any perceived threats to its sovereignty and security.
