Abdullah II and Emmanuel Macron on Friday at the Elysee Palace
King Abdullah II of Jordan was received in Paris by President Emmanuel Macron on Friday.
He reiterated what he had already stated in Washington, Ottawa, and London in recent days. The Israeli offensive in Gaza has severe humanitarian consequences and poses risks of destabilization throughout the region.
The Hashemite sovereign called for an immediate ceasefire.
However, the king did not mention the threat posed by Hamas and other terrorist organizations in Gaza.
Jordanian diplomacy should play its role by working with other countries to neutralize Hamas. If the militants lay down their arms and the leaders surrender, the war will immediately cease.

Israel's military chief has pushed back against Benjamin Netanyahu's plans to seize areas of Gaza it doesn't already control, three Israeli officials said, as the prime minister faces increasing pressure over the war both at home and abroad.
Iran executed a man on Wednesday convicted of spying for Israel and passing on information about a nuclear scientist killed in Israel's June attacks on the Islamic Republic, the judiciary's news outlet Mizan reported.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met senior security officials to finalise a new strategy for the nearly two-year war in Gaza, his office said on Tuesday, with media reporting he favoured a complete military takeover of the Strip.
