Home page Arab Info Jordan Info Jordan History ... Links to Jordan Jordan - Government In 1991 Jordan and the PLO had agreed on the principle of confederation between Jordan and whatever Palestinian entity ultimately emerged from the Middle East peace process. In mid-July 1993 Jordan and the PLO had agreed to form six committees to discuss relations between Jordan and the Occupied Territories during a period of transitional Palestinian self-rule. In addition to foreign arrivals, Jordan received large numbers of its own nationals fleeing from the Gulf region. About 300,000 of these expatriates remained in Jordan after the liberation of Kuwait in February 1991, as the rulers of Kuwait had regarded most Jordanian and Palestinian residents as collaborators with the Iraqi occupation forces. While Jordan welcomed the agreement concluded between Israel and the PLO as progress towards regional stability, it remained concerned by aspects of the Declaration of Principles which affected it directly and over which it had not been consulted. In January 1994, after King Hussein had twice warned that Jordan might otherwise pursue its own agenda in the ongoing peace negotiations with Israel, the PLO agreed to sign a comprehensive economic co-operation agreement with Jordan, and to establish a joint committee to coordinate financial policy in the Occupied Territories.

In fact, since September 11, 2001, virtually no demonstrations have been allowed in Jordan. Scores of people were arrested at the end of September and beginning of October 2001 for holding rallies in the Baqa refugee camp and on the university campuses to commemorate the first anniversary of the Palestinian Intifada and to protest the bombing of Afghanistan. They were held incommunicado without access to their families and lawyers, only to be released without charge several weeks later. The case of Toujan al-Faisal All these laws raise serious concerns because they contain provisions which restrict freedom of expression and association, increase the likelihood of imprisonment for non-violent activities, and further reduce safeguards for detainees and the accused. Human rights defenders, civil society activists, and opposition parties also contest the manner and circumstances in which these temporary laws have been passed, arguing that they are unconstitutional. They base their arguments on the grounds that there has been no emergency to justify the enactment of some ten temporary laws between June and October 2001. On October 31, 2001 scores of civil society figures including the Jordan Society for Human Rights (JSHR) issued a call for the repeal of these temporary laws.
