CAIRO,

Feb. 4 (SEE) - Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman, commonly known as MBS,

will visit Amman in Feb. to hold talks at a high level with Jordanian King

Abdallah II bin Al-Hussein, according to Jordanian sources to Arab media

outlets.

The

sources revealed that MBS's talks will tackle historical and brotherly

relations between the two countries, latest developments in the region and ways

to foster cooperation levels in various fields between Amman and Riyadh.

It's

also expected that both leaders will discuss regional issues, most notably

Yemen, Syria and the Palestine.

The

Saudi crown prince's two-week visit comes within the consultative framework

between Saudi and Jordan.

Saudi

Arabia is one of the largest donors to Jordan after the United States of

America. It is also the first destination for Jordanian workers who positively supply

the Jordanian economy with hard currency.

Noteworthy

that the MBS's visit was due to take place in last December, but it was

postponed owning to the crown prince's busy schedule and the unscheduled trip of

King Abdullah II to the United States to attend the funeral of late President

George Bush Sr.

King

Abdullah II was the co-sponsor of the second edition of the Future Investment

Initiative, "Davos Desert", held in Riyadh from October 23-25, 2018,

with a wide global participation of leaders and kings and heads of ministries

of Arab and Western countries.
