Amman,(Asian independent) Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi and Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul-Gheit held talks on Wednesday on efforts to advance joint Arab action and regional developments.

They call for broader joint Arab action and a collective Arab role to resolve crises and enhance regional security and stability, Xinhua news agency reported, citing the state-run media report.

The Arab League, which will remain the “umbrella of joint Arab action,” needs to have its role strengthened and Jordan is committed to supporting the League in this regard, Safadi was quoted as saying.

They called for intensifying international and regional efforts to revive negotiations based on the two-state solution, which is the sole way to reach a fair peace.
