Senior Jordanian, Saudi and Emirati officials have met in Jeddah to exchange views on international relations and moves towards peace and stability in the region, the state news agency Wam reported on Monday.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, met with Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia, and King Abdullah II of Jordan.
Wam reported that the international leaders took stock of the regional and international developments and exchanged views on a variety of issues of mutual interest.
The meeting follows a visit by King Abdullah II of Jordan to the UAE last month, where he met with Sheikh Mohammed at Al Mina Palace to discuss Arab and regional development.
The meeting, which took place during King Abdullah’s stopover to China, also looked at strengthening bilateral ties between the countries and Sheikh Mohammed stressed the importance of strong UAE-Jordanian relations and expressed keenness to bolster ties in the best interest of both countries.
Sheikh Mohammed was welcomed upon arrival at King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah by Saudi Crown Prince Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Prince Khalid Al Faisal bin Abdulaziz, governor of the Makkah Region, Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, president of General Intelligence and secretary general of national security council, and a number of top Saudi officials.

Two-step truce
The UN-brokered ceasefire deal for Hodeidah will be implemented in two stages, with the first to be completed before the New Year begins, according to the Arab Coalition supporting the Yemeni government.
By midnight on December 31, the Houthi rebels will have to withdraw from the ports of Hodeidah, Ras Issa and Al Saqef, coalition officials told The National.
The second stage will be the complete withdrawal of all pro-government forces and rebels from Hodeidah city, to be completed by midnight on January 7.
The process is to be overseen by a Redeployment Co-ordination Committee (RCC) comprising UN monitors and representatives of the government and the rebels.
The agreement also calls the deployment of UN-supervised neutral forces in the city and the establishment of humanitarian corridors to ensure distribution of aid across the country.
