US ambassador
Lower House Speaker Abdul Hadi Majali on Monday received US Ambassador David
Hale and discussed regional developments and efforts to push the Mideast peace
process forward. During the meeting, Majali reviewed the country’s stand towards
regional issues, particularly the Palestinian situation and the importance of
achieving a fair, comprehensive and sustainable peace, which would ensure that
Palestinians were granted their legitimate rights as well as the establishment
of an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital. Majali also reviewed the
economic challenges facing the Kingdom and His Majesty King Abdullah’s efforts
to promote reform and democracy in the region.
