Abdullah met last week with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Amman, where they discussed efforts to reach a cease-fire in Gaza between Israel and Hamas, as well as Jordanian efforts to get more humanitarian aid into Gaza and to find long-term peace in the region with a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
Biden and Abdullah covered similar ground in a February meeting at the White House.
Nearly a month ago, Biden and Abdullah consulted by telephone following Iran’s massive aerial attack targeting Israel, which the White House said, “also threatened Jordan and the Jordanian people.”
