Reuters reported that in addition to the meeting with the US President, King Abdullah will attend a working breakfast with Vice President Kamla Harris at her residence on Tuesday, followed by a meeting with Foreign Minister Anthony Blinken at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
A senior Biden administration official said that talks between the US president and the Jordanian monarch are expected to include the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in light of Bennett’s recent arrival to power replacing Benjamin Netanyahu.
It is noteworthy that last week, King Abdullah II met in Amman with the commander of the US Central Command, General Kenneth McKenzie, and General Richard Clarke, the commander of the US Special Operations Command, to discuss developments in the region and efforts to combat terrorism.
