Safadi stressed that the security of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states is intertwined with the security of Jordan, voicing Jordan's rejection of any insult to Saudi Arabia.

Coveney, who is also the Irish defense minister, stressed that Jordan is a strategic partner of Ireland in the region and that his country is seeking to improve relations with the Kingdom at various levels, pointing out that the volume of trade exchange has doubled during this period, and is expected to reach more than $300 million.
