Al-Salem emphasized that celebrating national occasions vividly embodies the unity of Jordanians, invoking their honorable history filled with sacrifices and achievements, pointing out that the Jordanian flag represents a symbol of sovereignty and belonging, and a cradle for a deep-seated national memory. He also praised the heroic role of the Jordanian Armed Forces, describing them as the sturdy shield of the homeland, vigilant over its security, stability, and serving as a model of sacrifice and loyalty.

Al-Hiyari said in his speech that the Jordanian flag is not just a symbol, but it also represents the title for national sovereignty and a vivid embodiment of the state's identity, history, and entrenched values, noting that it unites Jordanians despite their diverse origins under one flag that expresses unity and the solidity of the internal front.
Al-Hiyari added that Flag Day represents a national milestone that invokes the journey of the Jordanian state and its history rich with achievements and sacrifices, explaining that the Jordanian flag, with its connotations, reflects the depth of Arabic and Islamic extension and reinforces the meanings of belonging and national pride, and at the same time serves as a perpetual motivation for the armed forces to continue giving and sacrificing, and a title for steadfastness in defending the homeland, emphasizing that protecting it and maintaining its security and stability is a sacred duty.
