Bucharest,
April 6 /Agerpres/ - Romanian President Traian Basescu and
H.M. King Abdullah II of Jordan talked on Monday, at the
Cotroceni Palace, about the possibility that Romanian and
Jordanian companies should work together on the Iraqi
market.
'The
possibility that Romanian and Jordanian companies should
work together on the Iraqi market was in the focus of the
examination I have made with His Majesty and both His
Majesty and me thought it was high time that economic
involvement became primordial in Iraq,' said Basescu in a
press statement he made together with the King of Jordan,
who is on a two-day official visit to Bucharest.
President Basescu also said that Romania was Jordan's most
important trade partner in South-Eastern Europe.The Head of
State thanked King Abdullah II for the things he made easier
for the Romanian community in Jordan and added that the way
its questions were approached was an additional element
consolidating the bilateral relations.
'For
us Jordan is a traditional partner. 11,000 Jordanian people
got their training in Romania, now they hold sound social
positions in their country and there is an open door for
Romania in Jordan anytime,' said Traian Basescu.
He
thanked the King for the visit he is paying to Romania, thus
answering the visit paid by the Romanian Head of State to
Jordan two years ago. King Abdullah II of Jordan appreciated
that the bilateral relations consolidated in this span of
time.
'Romania is a friend and a partner of my country's, the two
countries have multiple social, cultural, political and
economic relations,' he said.
'Your
country is an element that is very important for us
connecting us both to Eastern Europe and to the EU and I
must emphasize that the only embassy my country has in this
area is here and I think this speaks volumes,' he added.
