Egyptian president and Jordanian king say two-state solution not up for compromise
Jordan's King Abdullah arrived in Cairo on Tuesday on a one-day visit to Egypt to meet with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.

Al-Sisi greeted King Abdullah at the airport upon his arrival and presided over the official welcoming ceremony outside the Presidential Palace in Cairo's Heliopolis.

The two leaders said that they were committed to a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Sisi's office said in a statement after the meeting.

"The two sides discussed future movements to break the gridlock within the Middle East peace process, especially with U.S. President Donald Trump's administration taking power,” the statement said.
 
“They also discussed mutual coordination to reach a two-state solution and establish a Palestinian state based on the June 4, 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as a capital which is a national constant that cannot be given up.”

Al-Sisi and King Abdullah also discussed a range of regional issues ahead of the upcoming Arab League summit to be held in Jordan in March.
