Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi and Jordan’s King Abdullah II agreed on the importance of intensifying efforts to resume negotiations in the Middle East peace process per international references, the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative and the two-state solution.

According to the official Egyptian state news agency MENA, Egypt's presidency spokesman Bassam Rady said that the meeting between the two leaders saw consensus on the need to reach a two-state solution for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict based on the establishment of a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as the capital.

The Jordanian leader left Cairo on Monday afternoon hours after arriving at Cairo International Airport for a short visit to meet with El-Sisi, who received him at the airport.
