Jordan Trade Unions Slam Visit of “Criminal” Netanyahu

Jordan Trade Unions Slam Visit of “Criminal” Netanyahu

28/07/2010 Jordan's trade unions on Wednesday strongly condemned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Jordan, describing him as a "criminal."

"At a time when the Zionist enemy is killing our people in Palestine and destroying their homes, as well as planning schemes against Jordan's security, officials receive Netanyahu the criminal in Amman," head of the unions' council Ahmad Armuti said in a statement.

"The trade unions completely reject this visit and hold the government responsible for its political and public responsibilities, in line with the constitution."

Netanyahu held a two-hour meeting with King Abdullah II on a surprise visit to Jordan on Tuesday in a bid to convince Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas to upgrade Middle East peace talks.
