Jordan a 'strategic partner' in Middle East peacemaking
Israel sees Jordan as a “strategic partner and an important element” in efforts to attain peace with the Arabs, the Israeli Embassy in Amman has said in a statement coinciding with the 11th anniversary of a peace treaty between the two Middle East neighbours.
This year marked a “significant stage in deepening political dialogue and bilateral cooperation on all levels,” the statement said, referring to public contacts between both leaderships, including Jordan’s King Abdullah II and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.
