His Majesty King Abdullah will head Jordan’s delegation to the 25th Arab Summit that will start in Kuwait Tuesday amidst deep intra-Arab disputes and the absence of several Arab leaders.

King Abdullah was expected to leave for the pan-Arab meeting from The Hague, where he was attending a nuclear conference, while Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour and Royal Court Chief Fayez Tarawneh left for Kuwait on Monday.

Kuwait’s summit is expected to be dominated by the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict with two-thirds of the summit’s resolutions focusing on the issue, according to a draft communiqué.

Arab leaders are likely to endorse a resolution to technically and financially support Jordan to deal with the impact of over 1.3 million Syrians living in the country, including some 600,000 registered refugees.

They are also expected to voice support for an agreement signed between Jordan and Palestine last year that reaffirms the status of His Majesty as the custodian of the holy sites in Jerusalem, according to the draft resolutions.
