Speaker of the Lower House of Parliament Atef Tarawneh conveyed the greetings of His Majesty King Abdullah II to Greek President Prokopios Pavlopoulos, as well as his wishes of progress and prosperity to the Greek people.
During a meeting with the Greek President at the Republican Palace in Athens on Thursday, Tarawneh stressed His Majesty's keenness to forge closer ties with Greece and boost coordination on issues of common interest.
President Pavlopoulos asked Tarawneh to convey his greetings to His Majesty King Abdullah as well as his desire to enhance cooperation and coordination between Jordan and Greece on various issues of common interest.
He said Greece will continue backing Jordan through urging the European Union to support the Kingdom to enable it to continue its role towards the Syrian refugees and the fight against terrorism.
Tarawneh reviewed Jordan's reform process as well as efforts exerted by Jordan to deal with the repercussions of the Syrian crisis on Jordan, which has received a large number of Syrian refugees, who are placing an increasing pressure on Jordan's various sectors.
He said the rise of violence and extremism resulted from the failure to find a just solution to the Palestinian issue. The speaker also praised Greece's supportive stance towards Arab issues, mainly the Palestinian cause.
