His Majesty King Abdullah continued his discussions with the United States Congress on Wednesday February 1st, meeting with the Senate Armed Services, Appropriations, and Foreign Relations Committees.
The sessions focused on the role of Jordan and the United States' strategic alliance in fostering peace in the region, increasing frontiers of collaboration in numerous fields, and continuing coordination and consultation on topics of mutual importance.
The sessions, which were attended by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II, focused on the most recent regional and international developments, the most pressing of which is the Palestinian struggle.
During the meetings, which included Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah, King Abdullah praised the United States for its leadership in the region and around the world, and expressed gratitude for its assistance to the Kingdom in a variety of areas.
His Majesty reaffirmed Jordan's unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, calling for increased international efforts to restore calm and de-escalation, and reiterating Jordan's rejection of unilateral measures that undermine peace prospects and push the region into further violence and instability.
Jordan, according to the King, is eager to continue working with the United States and the international community to create a political horizon that allows for the resumption of serious Palestinian-Israeli negotiations for just and comprehensive peace, based on the two-state solution, guaranteeing the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the 4 June 1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its capital, living side by side with Israel in peace and security.
