Riyadh (Rahnuma): Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi met with the King of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, His Majesty Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein today on the sidelines of the Future Investment Initiative (FII) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The two leaders exchanged views on strengthening bilateral relations, including MoUs and Agreements signed during His Majesty’s visit to India from 27 February – 01 March 2018.
They discussed the Middle East Peace Process and other regional developments. Both leaders also discussed cooperation in counter-terrorism.
Historical links, cultural affinities and people-to-people contacts between India and the Arabian Middle East have existed since times immemorial.
The Prime Minister’s visit to Jordan and the King’s visit to India in 2018 have imparted a new momentum in our bilateral relations that are marked by mutual respect and understanding on various bilateral, regional and multilateral issues.
