Jordan and Israeli elections
The article concerns the Israeli Knesset elections scheduled for October 27, 2026, and their potential impact on Jordan. It indicates that Israel may postpone the elections in the event of a regional war, especially against Iran, or that the elections will proceed as planned with a likelihood of a far-right victory led by Benjamin Netanyahu or the rise of a hardline right-wing opposition. Jordan expresses concern over a possible Israeli escalation, noting that after the elections, the Israeli right could attempt to impose policies aimed at erasing the Palestinian issue and dividing al-Aqsa, thereby threatening regional security and Jordan's stability. Such developments could increase the chances of heightened security and political tensions. Amman believes that the election results will significantly influence the future of Jordan’s relationship with Israel, particularly regarding the West Bank and Jerusalem. It fears that any outcomes could lead to further deterioration and Israeli control over the holy sites, with expectations that the coming phase will be more difficult for Jordan.
