His Majesty King Abdullah on Saturday received a phone call from United States National Security Adviser John Bolton and discussed the strategic partnership between the two countries, as well as a number of regional issues.

The two sides affirmed the importance of maintaining Jordanian-US coordination on various matters of mutual concern.

The phone call also covered efforts to reach a political solution to the Syrian crisis through the Geneva process, one that guarantees the territorial integrity of Syria and the unity of its people.

Moreover, the two sides stressed the importance of maintaining the de-escalation zone in southwestern Syria, established last year under a trilateral agreement reached by Jordan, the United States, and Russia.

Discussions in the phone call also addressed efforts to fight terrorism within a holistic approach, and Jordanian-US cooperation in this regard.
