Jordan’s King Abdullah congratulates Biden on election win
Jordanian King Abdullah II congratulates Joe Biden on his victory in the US presidential elections.
“Congratulations to President-elect Joe Biden and VP-elect Kamala Harris. I look forward to working with you on further advancing the solid historic partnership between Jordan and the United States, in the interest of our shared objectives of peace, stability and prosperity,” Abdullah II says in a tweet.
Jordan is an important regional ally to both Israel and the United States. While relations between Jordan and the United States remained close during the Trump years, the American administration’s policies were often deeply unpopular among the kingdom’s pro-Palestinian majority.
