Jordanian King Abdullah II on Monday held a meeting with US Secretary of State John Kerry to discuss a number of Middle East issues and efforts to fight terrorism and extremism, Petra reported.
The talks dealt with the ongoing crisis in Syria. In this context, the King emphasized that the international community was required to step up its efforts to find a comprehensive solution to the war in Syria and end the suffering of the Syrian people.
They also discussed means to revive Israel-Palestinian peace negotiations in accordance with the two-state solution and relevant international legitimacy resolutions.
