Fayez Tarawneh (Шаблон:Lang-ar; Шаблон:Transliteration; 1 May 1949 – 15 December 2021) was a Jordanian independent politician, who served twice as the 31st Prime Minister of Jordan, and also as Chief of the Royal Hashemite Court.

Early life and education

Tarawneh was born on 1 May 1949.[1] He received a bachelor's degree in economy from the University of Jordan.[1] He also obtained a master's degree in 1974 and a PhD in 1980 in economics, both from the University of Southern California.[1]

Career

Tarawneh was Jordanian ambassador to the United States from 1993 until 1997,[2] and headed the Jordanian delegation that was in charge of peace negotiations with Israel in 1994.[3] Then he was appointed Prime Minister and served in this post from 20 August 1998 to 4 March 1999, the last Prime Minister under King Hussein, who died in February 1999.[1] Next he was named chief of the royal court in 1999.[4] The other cabinet posts he held include Foreign Minister and Trade Minister.[1] Tarawneh was appointed senator in 2003.[1]

He was appointed to serve as prime minister for a second time on 26 April 2012 after the sudden resignation of his predecessor, Awn Shawkat Al-Khasawneh.[5] An increase in fuel prices resulted in protests. On 2 September 2012, a motion of no confidence passed in parliament against his government.[6] On 11 October 2012, he was replaced by Abdullah Ensour as prime minister. Tarawneh was appointed chief of royal court by King Abdullah II on 28 January 2013, replacing Riyad Abu Karaki.[1]

In 1995, Tarawneh was awarded the Gabriel Peace Prize together with Israeli negotiator Elyakim Rubinstein for his role in the talks that led to the signing of the Israel-Jordan peace treaty in October 1994.[10]
