Jordan's King Abdullah II on Sunday telephoned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to urge the Israeli leader to create conditions conducive to the two-state solution, according to a statement from the Jordanian royal court, dpa reported. The two leaders discussed "efforts under way to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict on the basis of the two-state vision and within a regional perspective that leads to comprehensive and durable peace in the region," the statement said. The monarch urged Netanyahu to "work intensively to create the conditions conducive to the re-launching of serious and effective negotiations at the earliest possible time and in accordance with the agreed references, particularly the Arab peace initiative," it added. Relations between Jordan and Israel appeared to have turned sour in the past months after a Knesset member called for the creation of a Palestinian state in Jordan. Over the past couple of days, King Abdullah also spoke by telephone with US President Barack Obama and met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who visited Amman to discuss moves to spur the stalled peace process. -- SPA
