AMMAN (Jordan Times) – His Majesty King Abdullah on Tuesday said the Arab Spring is a pivotal stage in Arab history.
“At the end of the day, when we all look back at some point in the future, this is a defining moment for the Middle East,” he stressed in an interview with The Times British daily in London.
The King said Jordan is currently going through an “Arab summer”, where work should be focused on preparing for elections.

Note by the editor: It is not often that His Majesty can ‘look down’ on anybody… (he is not very tall, but it seems he is taller than Her Majesty the Queen of England).
