العربية تشارك في إطلاق سلسلة فعاليات لرفض اتفاقية الغاز مع الكيان الصهيوني

The Jordanian National Campaign opposing a gas export agreement with Israel has launched a series of activities including sit-in protests as well as awareness lectures designed to alert the public to the risks involved in such an agreement.

The Campaign, of which APN is one of the founders, has demanded the government to call off the agreement expected to be signed by the Jordanian National Electricity Company. During the campaign’s activities,  letters were sent to embassies of Arab countries working with the Potash Company denouncing import of gas from Israel, and urging them to exert influence on the company’s board to cancel the agreement.

 

Campaign members joined by other activists held a series of protests including one on January 27th, 2015 outside the Potash Company’s headquarters, to voice their opposition to the deal.            A march was also organized on the 6th of March 2015 from the Professional Associations Complex to the prime ministry.
