AMMAN — Senate President Faisal Fayez on Sunday said that the fight against corruption and nepotism, in all its forms, is a national priority, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
During a ceremony organised by the Integrity and Anti-Corruption Commission on the occasion of the International Anti-Corruption Day, Fayez said that corruption in Jordan is not as extended as it is described by some parties, stressing that the talks surrounding the issue are mostly exaggerated and not realistic.
He said the corruption cases mentioned in light of the so-called "Arab Spring" were unrealistic and inaccurate, highlighting Jordan's strong stance in the fight against all forms of corruption. Citing the judiciary as the only way to end corruption, he pointed out that there is no country in the world that is entirely corruption free.
