Iran’s FM meets with Jordan’s king, calls for Muslims’ action against Israel
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has held talks with Jordan’s King Abdullah II, calling for greater cooperation and solidarity among Muslim countries in the region to compel the Israeli regime to halt its genocidal actions and warmongering.
Araghchi expressed deep concern and sorrow over the dire conditions facing the displaced people in Gaza and Lebanon, who are currently deprived of basic necessities for survival, according to a readout by the Iranian Foreign Ministry.
He called for mobilizing all capacities of Islamic countries to collect and send humanitarian aid to the region.
King Abdullah II expressed serious concern regarding the existing circumstances in the region and the serious dangers arising from the expansion of conflict and insecurity.
He reaffirmed Jordan's commitment to assist and participate in initiatives to maintain stability and security in the region.
Both sides also underscored determination to develop bilateral relations and continue consultations regarding regional developments to help preserve security and stability in the area.
Need for assisting refugees
Earlier in the day, Araghchi also met with Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman al-Safadi to discuss issues of mutual interest in bilateral relations and ongoing regional developments.
Araghchi said countries in the region need to join hands to prevent further escalation of conflict and safeguard stability and security in line with the interests of regional nations.
Safadi expressed grave concern about the deteriorating security conditions in the region, reiterating his country's position on the necessity of ending the massacre of innocent people in Palestine and Lebanon, stopping aggressions against Lebanon, and preventing further instability in the region.
Both parties highlighted the importance of mobilizing regional countries and the international community to assist refugees in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria.
Jordan’s foreign minister also told Araghchi that the country would not allow any parties to violate its airspace, amid threats by Israel to attack Iran in response to its recent retaliatory missile attack on the occupied territories.
Jordan will “not be a battlefield for anyone and will not allow any party to violate its sovereignty and airspace and threaten its citizens’ security,” Safadi said.
Araghchi's trip to Jordan is part of the Iranian minister’s intensive diplomacy over the past days, which also took him to Syria, Lebanon, and Qatar, among other countries.
