His Majesty King Abdullah met on Wednesday with Lebanese MP Saad Hariri and reiterated Jordan's support for Lebanon.

“Jordan supports all efforts to help Lebanon preserve unity and stability and overcome its political crisis,” the King told Hariri, who heads the Future Bloc in the Lebanese parliament.

King Abdullah urged Lebanese political groups to focus on their country's national interests, work together and overcome differences.

“Achieving reconciliation in Lebanon is an urgent need at this difficult time in the region," the King said.

Hariri briefed the King on efforts to reach consensus between Lebanese parties and overcome obstacles facing national dialogue.
