The Prince of Wales has urged the UK and Jordan to make protecting the environment a priority as the two nations “build back after Covid-19”.In a speech marking the 100th anniversary of the founding of Jordan, Charles said Britain’s former protectorate was a voice of “moderation, understanding and tolerance” in the region under the leadership of King Abdullah II.The prince, who has spent two days touring Jordan with the Duchess of Cornwall, learning about its heritage, work supporting refugees and efforts to bring religions together, said it was a “special joy” to be among friends after the “sorrow, separation and grief” of Covid.Charles also evoked the spirit of TE Lawrence – famous for his role fighting alongside Arabs during the revolt against the Ottoman Empire during the First World War.
