The FM stressed that UNRWA’s role cannot be dispensed with or replaced, stressing that no other party is capable of carrying out the mission that the agency plays in Gaza.

Stressing need to support the agency, he valued reversal of some countries’ decision to freeze their aid to UNRWA after the accusations leveled against a small number of the agency’s staff.

In another meeting, Safadi received Catherine
Colonna, head of the independent review group to evaluate UNRWA’s performance, stressing Jordan’s support for the committee’s mission and thanking its chair for her current “great” effort.
