Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign and Expatriate Affairs Ayman Safadi discussed over the telephone with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan on Saturday prospects for de-escalation in the region and efforts made for implementation of a US-Iranian ceasefire agreement.

The ministers agreed that concerted efforts be made to bring about calm and resort to dialogue as the path to solve the crisis.

They also warned against the consequences of Israel's ongoing illegal actions in the occupied Palestinian territories, which perpetuate the occupation, violate the Palestinian people's right to freedom, statehood, and dignity on their historic land, and undermine chances of achieving a just peace.

The ministers agreed on the need to implement all provisions of US President Donald Trump's plan to stabilize Gaza.

They also pledged continued joint efforts to support Syria's unity, security, and stability, and the reconstruction process launched by the Syrian government to build a future "that meets the aspirations of the brotherly Syrian people." The ministers condemned Israeli attacks on Syria, interference in Syria's internal affairs, and attempts to destabilize the country.

Fidan briefed Safadi on the outcome of a NATO summit in Turkey last week.

The ministers also discussed ways to bolster the historic and brotherly Jordanian-Turkish relations, pledging to continue to develop cooperation across various sectors.
