His Majesty King Abdullah, on Sunday at Al Husseiniya Palace, met with a delegation of senior officers from the US National Defense University (CAPSTONE Fellows), headed by retired Admiral William Gortney, to discuss recent development in the region.

The meeting, attended by His Royal Highness Prince Feisal bin Al Hussein, covered Jordan’s position on various regional issues, and its role in pursuit of peace, stability, and finding political solutions to crises in the region.

In addition, discussions addressed the peace process, with King Abdullah calling for an end to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, based on the two-state solution and leading to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, living side by side with Israel.

The recent developments in the Syrian crisis and efforts to fight terrorism within a holistic approach were also discussed.

Adviser to His Majesty and Director of the Office of His Majesty Manar Dabbas attended the meeting.
