King Abdullah II, Queen Rania and the King’s uncle, Prince Talal and his wife Princess Ghaida, arrived in Fez, Morocco Sunday afternoon as part of a private visit. Meaning, this is not an official state visit, but a working visit. 
The Jordanian royals were greeted by King Mohammed VI, Princess Lalla Salma and their son Moulay Hassan.
The two Kings discussed close cooperation with their kingdoms, as well as forging a common Arab stance on various issues. They also talked about current events and how to bring peace to the Middle East.
Moroccan Foreign Minister Taieb Fassi Fihri told AFP Friday that Amman and Rabat had a “clear vision” about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
“The creation of a Palestinian state is the solution to the crisis in the Middle East,” he said. “It is futile to seek other alternatives.”
He said both countries backed Egyptian efforts to mediate a lasting truce between Israel and Hamas in and around Gaza.
King Abdullah and Queen Rania were then guests of honor at a dinner held by the Moroccan royals.
Monday will see the Jordanian King and Queen visit Portugal. That trip will be an official one, however.
