約旦國王阿卜杜拉二世說，這可能需要幾年以一個民主選舉產生的政府來取代他已任命的。
Jordan's King Abdullah II says it may take a couple of years to replace the government he has appointed with a democratically elected one.

King Abdullah said that it should be “clear to all that if you start now building political parties, you might need at least two or three years to render these parties mature and well enough established to make gains in legislative elections, and, subsequently, to implement their programs on the ground,” AP reported on Tuesday.
阿卜杜拉國王表示，“大家都<應該>清楚如果你現在開始建立政黨，你可能需要至少兩三年時間去使這些政黨成熟，和足夠建立得好去在立法選舉得益，並隨後在地面實施他們的方案，“美聯社週二報導。
The Jordanian king made the remarks during a meeting with a group of young Jordanians in Amman.

He also claimed that the government is working on laws relevant to political changes that are set to be put into effect this year.

However, Abdullah's comments flatly contradict his earlier promises of swift political reforms.
然而，阿卜杜拉的評論斷然地與他先前的政治改革承諾相抵觸。

The Jordanian people have been pressuring King Abdullah to institute reforms and relinquish his extensive powers, which include the right to appoint cabinet ministers and dissolve the parliament.

The Arab Spring has also come to Jordan, and there have been a number of demonstrations in the kingdom since January, in which the people have criticized the limited nature of the reforms.
