The two ministers discussed a number of regional and international issues, foremost is the Palestinian cause, affirming the continued action and coordination in efforts to support Palestinian people and ensure that all their rights are met, especially their right to establish a free, independent and sovereign state on their national soil according to the two-state solution as the only way to achieve a just and comprehensive peace.

In addition, the two ministers discussed efforts to solve the Syrian crisis, including the Jordanian initiative to launch a direct Arab-Syrian dialogue aimed at ending Syrian crisis and addressing all its consequences.

Safadi and Ataf agreed to maintain joint communication and coordination, and lauded development of bilateral relations.
