AMMAN, May 6, 2026 (WAFA) – The final communique of the fifth Jordan-Cyprus-Greece Trilateral Summit held in Amman on Wednesday affirmed that the two-state solution is the only path to a just and lasting peace.
The tripartite summit was convened between King Abdullah II, Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides, and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
“We emphasise that the implementation of the two-state solution, so that an independent, sovereign Palestinian state on Palestinian national soil can live in peace and security side by side with Israel, on the basis of international law and relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions, is the only path to a just and lasting peace,” the final communique read.
They condemned “all illegal unilateral Israeli measures in the occupied West Bank, including in East Jerusalem, that undermine the two-state solution.”
They emphasized “the illegality of Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian Territory and the necessity of stopping all settlement activity, land confiscation, and the escalating extremist settlers’ violence against Palestinians.”
They reiterated their rejection of “all attempts and measures to annex the occupied West Bank or any parts thereof,” while stressing their “rejection of any displacement of the Palestinian people.”
The leaders emphasized “the necessity of upholding the Historic and Legal Status Quo at Jerusalem’s Muslim and Christian holy sites, and of allowing safe access thereto.”
“Cyprus and Greece reaffirm their support of the historic Hashemite Custodianship of Muslim and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem,” the final communique read.
They urged “the full implementation of US President Donald Trump’s comprehensive plan for Gaza and United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803, with a view to ending the dire humanitarian crisis, the creation of conditions conducive to early recovery, reconstruction, and the establishment of a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood.”
They underscore the importance of “ensuring the continued, sufficient, safe, and unhindered flow of humanitarian assistance into the Gaza Strip.”
They underlined the “indispensable role of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA),” stressed the importance of “enabling the Agency to continue its operations in accordance with its UN mandate, including through ensuring adequate and sustainable funding,” and condemned “any measures that obstruct or undermine its ability to fulfil its mandate.”
