What was said

"initially the kind of the signals from Washington is, well, we're just going to dump all this on your lap. We're going to see if we can force Jordan to accept, you know, all these Palestinian refugees as being citizens of of your country."

Joby Warrick says he saw early post-7 October “signals from Washington” suggesting Jordan might be pressed to accept large numbers of Palestinian refugees as citizens. He argues Jordan would view that as politically unacceptable, comparing it to forcing the US to absorb Haiti’s population.
