They also discussed developments in the region, especially in Iraq and Syria and efforts to combat terrorism and extremism, in addition to stressing the need to strengthen pan-Arab solidarity.
Regarding the Palestinian cause, Tarawneh noted that any forthcoming negotiations between the Palestinians and Israelis must bring an independent Palestinian state and address all final status issues.
He also spoke about Jordan's efforts to counter extremist ideology and highlight the bright and true image of Islam. He highlighted burdens being borne by Jordan as a result of hosting a massive influx of Syrian refugees on its territory.
