AMMAN — Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi met on Wednesday with German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser and Austrian Interior Minister Gerhard Karner to discuss strengthening Jordan’s ties with Germany and Austria within the framework of its strategic partnership with the EU.

Safadi stressed the urgent need for unified efforts to stop Israel’s aggression on Gaza, calling for an immediate and lasting ceasefire, along with the opening of border crossings to facilitate humanitarian aid deliveries, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

The discussions also addressed the situation in Syria, highlighting the importance of a Syrian-led political process to restore the country’s unity, security, and stability while combating terrorism and protecting Syrians’ rights.

Safadi also stressed continued support for refugees, host countries, and relief organisations, alongside efforts to create conditions for refugees’ voluntary return.

Faeser and Karner commended Jordan’s role and His Majesty King Abdullah’s leadership in fostering regional security, stability, and peace.
