day visit of King Abdullah of Jordan beginning on Tuesday will see discussions with Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, centering on regional developments, reviving the stalled peace process, and moves to ensure Arab reconciliation and solidarity to “counter Israeli maneuverings.” King Abdullah will also discuss with the Jordanian monarch the Saudi-Yemeni border issue, Palestinian dialogue to end internal division, the Iranian nuclear issue and strengthening Saudi-Jordanian relations in a wide range of fields. According to Jordanian political sources, King Abdullah's meeting with the Jordanian monarch has gained importance due to regional and international developments. “The leaderships in the two countries are keen to improve bilateral relations and promote political, economic and commercial dialogue,” the sources said. “The Jordanian monarch will reiterate his country's full support for the measures taken by the Kingdom to deter infiltrators, protect the security and sovereignty of Saudi territory and repel any trespassing.” They added that the Jordanian King rejects any regional interference in Yemen's internal affairs. The sources said that Riyadh and Amman were resolved to strengthen Arab conciliation and meet the challenges of immediate future which would require “consultation and coordination” to protect Arab national security. Discussions during the Riyadh summit, according to the sources, will be “wide-ranging”, with particular focus on “Arab initiatives to realize the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people in establishing their Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.”
