Fayez affirmed the strength of ties between the two countries and underlined Jordan's commitment to reinforcing them. He also stressed the importance of sustained coordination and consultation on issues of shared concern, and called for deeper Jordanian-Turkish economic cooperation, stronger investment partnerships, and the activation of existing bilateral agreements.
The meeting also covered regional developments, with Fayez referencing King Abdullah II's address to the United Nations General Assembly, in which the King presented the international community with what he described as the reality of war crimes being committed by Israeli occupation forces in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
Fayez said the King had made clear to the world that what is happening in the occupied West Bank cannot be separated from events in Gaza. The King, he added, had characterised the expansion of settler violence, land seizures, and settlement construction in the West Bank as war crimes and forced displacement.
Fayez also affirmed Jordan's rejection of Iranian attacks against the Kingdom and Arab Gulf states, stressing that Jordan would not allow itself to become a battlefield for the region's conflicts. He also condemned Houthi attacks against Saudi Arabia.
For his part, Ambassador Karachay said Turkey was committed to strengthening its bilateral relationship with Jordan across all fields and to continuing coordination on regional issues of shared interest, with the aim of restoring security and stability to the region.
The ambassador praised the role played by King Abdullah II in advancing regional security and stability, and underlined the importance of deepening economic and investment partnerships and activating existing bilateral agreements between the two countries.
