“Jordan will not have any form of nuclear cooperation with Israel before it abides by the relevant international resolutions, including the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty,” chairman of the Jordan Atomic Energy Commission (JAEC) Khalid Touqan said.

“Israel should also commit itself to a peaceful, just and comprehensive solution to the Palestinian question and returning the occupied territories to their legitimate owners,” he said.

Touqan called for a Middle East free of all mass destruction arms and urged the world community to “apply this policy to all parties in the region”.
