Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Ayman Safadi, discussed Wednesday with an Iraqi parliamentary delegation headed by the First Deputy Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament, Hassan Al-Kaabi, ways to strengthen brotherly relations to “broader” horizons of cooperation and coordination in various fields to serve common interests, which would achieve visions of the two countries’ leaderships.

Safadi stressed the importance of building on the outcomes of the tripartite summit held last June in Baghdad and brought together leaders of Jordan, Iraq, and Egypt, within a joint cooperation mechanism.

Safadi affirmed the Kingdom’s “firm” position to support Iraq in bolstering its security and stability, consolidating the “remarkable” victory Bagdad has achieved against terror gangs, and supporting it in the reconstruction process.

Iraq, he said, is a pillar of security and stability in the region and has a “major” role in enhancing regional security and stability.

The Iraqi parliamentary delegation, for their part, lauded the Kingdom’s “firm” stances, always affirmed by His Majesty King Abdullah II, in supporting Iraq and the joint continuous cooperation and coordination.

The Iraqi lawmakers also affirmed their country’s keenness to enhance joint cooperation and develop brotherly relations in various fields within the tripartite cooperation mechanism and maintain consultation and coordination on challenges to serve common interests.
