foreign affairs and expatriate affairs, met with Nikolai Chioka, the prime
minister of Romania, on Tuesday in Bucharest to discuss ways to improve the
prospects for cooperation between the two nations in a number of areas, in
collaboration with the European Union, and on matters of mutual interest.
AlSafadi is meeting privately with key Romanian officials,
including his counterpart Bogdan Orisco, during the formal visit.
'I look forward to
visiting my friend and colleague Minister Ayman AlSafadi, in Bucharest on
Tuesday, to continue our discourse following my visit to Amman last year and

security, and global developments.
Since 1965, Jordan
and Romania have maintained diplomatic ties. In 1974, both countries' capitals
established embassy-level diplomatic missions and nominated resident
ambassadors. Additionally, the Honorary Consulate of the Hashemite Kingdom of
Jordan was reopened in Brasov, Romania.
