He expressed “Jordan’s keenness to advance the strong ties and strategic partnership between Jordan and the United States, and expand prospects for cooperation across all fields,” it said,
The King stressed “the pivotal role of the United States in pushing all sides to work towards achieving peace, security, and stability for all in the region.”
