King meets Abbas

Amman
14 November 2005

His Majesty King Abdullah on Monday received Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who arrived "to express support for Jordan.”



Terrorism, said the King, "will not stop Jordan from continuing its historic role in defending the Palestinian cause until a just peace that restore rights of the Palestinians is achieved."



For his part, Abbas expressed his deepest sympathies and commended the Jordanian security apparatus.



The Palestinian president, meanwhile, visited Radisson SAS and the Grand Hyatt hotels and inspected the damage caused by the bombings.
