Jordan's Stability 'Vital' to Israel's Security

"Jordan's stability is a vital interest of Israel," Zionist regime’s foreign minister Avigdor Liberman stated, in a meeting with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

"Without going into details, we will do everything to maintain the stability of Jordan." Steinmeier agreed.

"ISIS in Iraq constitutes a serious threat to the territorial integrity of Iraq and the entire region," he said.

He urged that the entire international community must work so that "ISIS cannot tighten its grip [on the Middle East] and the caliphate it declared does not turn into a center for terror and violence."

"We have seen from clashes in the Golan Heights how events in the region can affect the security of Israel," Steinmeier continued.

"We must ensure that a solution is found for the internal problems in Iraq, and establish a government that will represent proportionally all communities and factions to detract support for ISIS from the Sunni population."

On Sunday, former National Security Council director Yaakov Amidror warned against ISIS moving in on Jordan and posing a threat to Israel, adding that if Jordan requested Israeli assistance in preventing its border with Iraq from being overrun by ISIS, Israel would have little choice but to help.
