Biden Calls Jordan King A Loyal Ally In ‘Tough Neighborhood’

WASHINGTON——(77WABC)

President Joe Biden praised King Abdullah II of Jordan as a stalwart ally in a “tough neighborhood” as the two leaders huddled at the White House, a meeting that came at a pivotal moment for both leaders in the Middle East.

Last week a Jordanian state security court sentenced two former officials to 15 years in prison over an alleged plot against the king that involved Abdullah’s half-brother.

Meanwhile, Biden is dealing with stepped-up attacks against U.S. troops in Iraq and Syria by Iranian-backed militias.

The increased attacks come as his administration is trying to revive the Iran nuclear agreement abandoned by the Trump administration.
