The Jordanian government on Monday formally welcomed the newly reached agreement between the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran to halt active military operations and initiate detailed negotiations toward a permanent diplomatic settlement.
In an official statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Jordan characterized the breakthrough as a vital step toward restoring heavily fractured regional and international security.
رحّب الأردن اليوم بالتوصل إلى اتفاق بين الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية والجمهورية الإسلامية الإيرانية لإنهاء العمليات العسكربة وبدء مفاوضات تفصيلية بهدف التوصل إلى اتفاق دائم، خطوة هامة لاستعادة الأمن والاستقرار الإقليميين والدوليين.

The Foreign Ministry expressed Jordan's deep appreciation for the intensive diplomatic mediation led by Pakistan and Qatar, alongside other regional allies, whose coordinated arbitration successfully urged both Washington and Tehran to accept the de-escalation framework.
Amman explicitly emphasized that any lasting, sustainable peace agreement must comprehensively safeguard the security interests of all Middle Eastern states.
The Ministry noted that a permanent settlement must be anchored in the core tenets of international law, including the absolute commitment to good neighborly relations, respect for state sovereignty, and a strict ban on domestic internal interference.
Furthermore, Jordan underlined a critical economic and tactical prerequisite: the immediate, unhindered restoration of maritime security and freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.
The Ministry specified that shipping conditions must be completely returned to the stable operational baseline that existed prior to February 28 the date when a massive regional kinetic escalation effectively paralyzed the vital global energy chokepoint.
The Ministry concluded by reaffirming Jordan's unwavering, long-standing foreign policy doctrine: supporting the resolution of all geopolitical conflicts exclusively through transparent diplomatic channels in strict compliance with the United Nations Charter and international law.
