QUOTE

We know that disputes and differences are a human reality, that the challenges we face will only get more complex, and that disruptions are the hallmark of our age.

But it's how we handle them, and the values we anchor ourselves to that count.

Abdullah II ibn Al Hussein

Address at The European Parliament - 17 June 2025

Whatever trials may come, know this: Here stand the men who walk in the footsteps of King Hussein—and they are a force to be reckoned with. From this sacred soil was born the spirit of valour, the spirit of the proud youth of Jordan—among them my son and your son, Al Hussein—united in their service as soldiers of this nation.

Abdullah II ibn Al Hussein

Speech from the Throne - 26 October 2025

Today, I stand among a proud and resilient people, whom I have the honour to faithfully serve. I am proud to be Jordanian; for Jordan is achievement during the harshest of circumstances, perseverance during the most difficult of times, and standing firm by what is right during the toughest of situations.
