Amman - Arab Today
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu arrived in the capital Amman late Saturday after postponing an earlier plan to visit the Kingdom on March 13, delayed by an explosion in Ankara.
The premier’s visit seeks to boost bilateral ties, while he will hold talks on recent developments in Syria, Turkish news outlets reported on Friday.
In his first visit to Jordan as prime minister, Davutoglu is scheduled to meet with King Abdullah of Jordan and Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour, Government Spokesperson Mohammad Momani said in a statement carried by the Jordan News Agency (Petra).
