Jordan Parliament to review peace treaty with Israel
AMMAN - Lawmakers in Jordan have tasked a parliamentary committee to review all agreements with Israel, including a 1994 peace treaty, following the US decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
Jordan, which is the custodian of Muslim holy sites in Jerusalem, accused US President Donald Trump of violating international law with the decision last week.
Meeting late on Sunday, Jordanian lawmakers voted unanimously to authorize the judicial affairs committee to "review all agreements with the Zionist state including Wadi Araba," official news agency Petra reported.
