lpv:translated text	"Your Majesty, on behalf of all the Members of the European Parliament, I would like to very warmly welcome you here to Strasbourg. It is clearly a great honour for us that you are visiting the European Parliament for a third time today. In so doing, you are showing us your friendship and your trust. Your Majesty, a little over a year ago, the Arab Spring began in a mood of great hope. The desire for democracy, social justice, the rule of law and freedom of opinion proved itself, once again, to be a universal desire. Your Majesty, unlike others, you decided to listen to the calls of the Jordanian people. You have put your country on the road to political and economic reforms. We, the popular representatives of the people of Europe, would like to act as a friend and partner to the Jordanian people during this transformation phase. We will stand by you both in your profound economic reforms and in the true opening up of politics in your country. In your address to the Jordanian people on 12 June of last year, you advocated the advent of parliamentary elections, with the participation of representative and active parties, from which a government is to be formed on the basis of the parliamentary majority. We welcome the fact that you have so clearly come out in favour of the principles of parliamentary democracy and the rule of law. That will act as a bulwark against desperation, against disappointment, against extremism and against violence. Naturally, your speech raised major expectations among the citizens of your country. As friends and partners, we will support you in following up your words with action and fulfilling your promise of reform. For Europe, Jordan is a country with which we feel a deep bond of friendship. Your personal commitment – in the last few weeks – to mediate between the Israelis and the Palestinians, to bring both sides back to the negotiating table, gave concrete expression to our belief that, in you, we have a comrade in arms in the struggle for diplomacy and democracy, for peace and for freedom. Your Majesty, we look forward to your address!"@en1
