Speaking during the meeting, Momani noted Jordan's political modernization, amid preparations to hold the next parliamentary elections with "broad" party participation, represented by allocating 41 seats to the general party list in the upcoming Parliament.

Momani noted the number of party seats will be increased in the upcoming Lower House of Representatives, which would lead to a party-based programmatic parliament. Momani stressed Jordan's "firm" position, led by His Majesty King Abdullah II, towards the Palestinian cause and the Israeli war on Gaza, and the need to reach a political solution that leads to end ing the war immediately reduce the suffering of the Palestinian people.
