Jordan objects to Russian terror list
Jordan's parliament has asked Russia to remove the Muslim Brotherhood from a list of 17 groups declared terrorist organisations by the country's supreme court. A parliamentary statement carried by the state-run Petra news agency on Wednesday, said:
“The Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan is a respectable charity organisation that is far removed from any terrorist activity and is an undivided part of the Jordanian national fabric...”
"This decision is unrealistic and a clear injustice. The Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan is a respectable charity organisation that is far removed from any terrorist activity and is an undivided part of the Jordanian national fabric. We call on Russia to reconsider its decision and cancel it as well as to strive to bolster relations with the Arab and Muslim worlds."

The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in the late 1920s and has since become a worldwide Islamist movement boasting two million members and the support of three million more people around the globe.
