His Majesty King Abdullah on Thursday renewed Jordan's support for the Iraqi government's efforts to restore safety, stability and unity in Iraq.

During talks with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Maliki, the King said safety and stability would be anchored in Iraq through the “participation of all constituents of the Iraqi people in a political process that aims at building Iraq's future and conserving its sovereignty”.

King Abdullah stressed Jordan's willingness to build strong ties with Iraq.

Maliki also held talks with Prime Minister Nader Dahabi and senior officials.

The two sides decided to renew an oil agreement signed in 2006 for three years.
