Foreign minister of Jordan Ayman Safadi Wednesday conveyed a letter from His Majesty King Abdullah to the President of Rwanda, Paul Kagame, on cooperation.
President Kagame sent greetings to King Abdullah and reiterated his country's interest in strengthening the growing friendship and cooperation between the two countries.
The meeting came on the heels of a round of strategic discussions that Safadi held with Rwandan foreign minister Vincent Biruta.
The strategic discussions dealt with cooperation in trade, tourism, health, education and infrastructure and finding the necessary legal frameworks to encourage private-sector cooperation between the two countries.
They explored defence cooperation and the efforts to combat terrorism.
Safadi and his Rwandan counterpart signed three cooperation agreements and memos in political consultations, higher education, scientific research and visa exemption for diplomatic, service and private passport holders.
They agreed to take measures to cancel entry visas for citizens of the two countries to increase trade cooperation and meetings between business sectors and encourage tourism.
In a press conference after the strategic discussions, the two ministers affirmed that cooperation between the two countries is progressing 'effectively' after a meeting between King Abdullah and Kagame in Amman last March.
The two ministers discussed the 'promising' areas of cooperation and confirmed the continuation of coordination in their joint efforts to combat terrorism.
Safadi said, 'Jordan is keen to develop the relationship with Rwanda and build on the results of the meeting between His Majesty King Abdullah II and President Paul Kagame.'
Biruta said, 'The two countries' governments have established strong and friendly ties, which today's fruitful discussions reinforced.'
'The talks held by Jordanian and Rwandan officials at various levels reaffirmed the mutual commitment to strengthening and advancing bilateral relations and cooperation at all levels,' Biruta added.
