ai generated text

The Islamic Action Front (IAF), a political offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, won 31 out of 138 seats in the Jordanian parliament. This result is considered a historic victory for the Islamists, marking their largest representation in parliament since the 1989 election. The IAF had previously held 10 seats in the 2020 parliament and 16 seats in the 2016 legislature.

    1. The elections reflect the desire for change and those who voted were not necessarily all Islamists but wanting change and had become fed up with the old ways.

    1. We are happy with these results and with the confidence placed in us by the Jordanian people.
    2. The Jordanian people have given us their trust by voting for us. This new phase will increase the burden of responsibility for the party towards the nation and our citizens.
