ISLAMABAD: Jordan’s King Abdullah will arrive in Pakistan on Saturday on a two-day state visit to elevate strategic relations between the two countries, the Pakistani foreign ministry said.
Pakistan and Jordan have strong relations and were part of discussions for President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza along with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Indonesia, Turkiye and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
During his visit, King Abdullah will meet with the Pakistani president and the prime minister, and discuss the full range of bilateral relations between the two brotherly countries, according to the Pakistani foreign office.
“It will serve to further strengthen the strategic direction of Pakistan–Jordan relations and place them on a higher trajectory, encompassing a comprehensive and broad-based partnership in the political, economic, and cultural spheres,” it said.
Jordan was the fifth state in the world to recognize Pakistan, with formal diplomatic relations established between the two countries in August 1948.
