Amman: Minister of Foreign and Expatriates Affairs Ayman Safadi and Canada's Foreign Minister Anita Anand discussed bilateral cooperation and pressing regional tensions. In a telephone conversation on Sunday, the top diplomats pledged to continue boosting ties between Amman and Ottawa across various fields, as well as supporting efforts to establish lasting regional stability.
According to Jordan News Agency, Safadi and Anand called for adhering to the ceasefire between the US and Iran, resuming negotiations toward a comprehensive solution that addresses the root causes of tension and ensures freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
Turning to Gaza, Safadi called for lifting Israeli blockades on humanitarian aid and fully implementing US President Donald Trump's plan for the strip, which continues to suffer a humanitarian catastrophe. He noted the deteriorating situation in the occupied West Bank, warning that ongoing illegal Israeli measures solidify the occupation and risk igniting further conflict. He lauded Canada's support for a two-state solution and its commitment to achieving a "fair, lasting peace" in the Middle East.
