Jordan's King Abdullah II has accepted Prime Minister Bisher al-Khasawneh's resignation, following last week's parliamentary election. Al-Khasawneh, a seasoned diplomat who had been in office since October 2020, resigned in accordance with constitutional requirements following legislative elections. Jafar Hassan, a technocrat and former planning minister who previously served as the king's chief of staff, has been named the new Prime Minister.
Parliamentary System And Election Outcomes
Jordan's Parliament is divided into two chambers: the House of Representatives is elected every four years, while the Senate is appointed by the king. In the most recent elections, the Islamic Action Front (IAF), affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, won 31 of the 138 seats, their highest representation since 1989.
Jordan's Challenges
The elections took place amid public outrage about Jordan's position on Israel's attack on Gaza. While Jordan signed a peace deal with Israel in 1994, its current decision to maintain diplomatic relations with Israel, despite considerable public unhappiness, has generated internal conflicts. The war in Gaza has also had a bad influence on Jordan's tourism industry, which contributes heavily to the country's economy. Jordan also continues to rely largely on foreign help from the US and the IMF.
