BLUF:
History - The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan said:Disengagement from the West Bank •Finally, on July 31 King Hussein announced the severance of all administrative and legal ties with the occupied West Bank. Accordingly, electoral districts were redrawn to represent East Bank constituencies only. This disengagement decision marks the turning point that launched the current democratic process, and began a new stage in Jordan’s relationship with West Bank Palestinians.

The decision to sever legal and administrative ties with the West Bank allowed Jordan’s electoral law to be changed, redrawing the map to include only East Bank districts. During the same period, mounting economic difficulties led to a spate of rioting in certain parts of the Kingdom.
(COMMENT)Jordan cannot "abandon" Palestinian land to Israel.
Don't be ridiculous! Not only can they do it, → they did do it... It was never Arab Palestinian Sovereign Territory... They rejected it...
