King receives call from Sisi

AMMAN — His Majesty King Abdullah on Monday received a telephone call from Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi, during which they discussed “brotherly ties” between the two countries and the latest regional developments.

The two leaders voiced keenness to continue cooperation and enhance coordination and consultation regarding regional issues, in a way that can achieve joint interests and serve the Arab nation’s causes, according to a Royal Court statement. 

The telephone call comes less than two weeks after His Majesty’s visit to Cairo and meeting with Sisi, where they stressed eagerness to bolster economic, trade and investment cooperation, especially after signing a memorandum of understanding to establish a coordination council for investment cooperation between the two countries.
