King Abdullah II of Jordan began an official visit to Hungary on Thursday, where he held high-level meetings with President Tamás Sulyok, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, and members of the Hungarian Parliament.

At the heart of the discussions was the implementation of the Gaza peace plan put forward by former U.S. President Donald Trump. The two sides exchanged views on the latest developments in the Middle East and reaffirmed the importance of coordinated efforts to achieve lasting peace and stability in the region.

Beyond regional affairs, the meetings also focused on strengthening Jordan-Hungary bilateral ties. The king and his Hungarian counterparts discussed mechanisms for expanding cooperation across various sectors in ways that serve the mutual interests of both nations.

King Abdullah underscored Jordan’s role in promoting regional stability and stressed the need for international collaboration in supporting peace initiatives and addressing humanitarian challenges, particularly in Gaza.

This visit reflects Jordan’s ongoing diplomatic engagement with European partners amid evolving geopolitical dynamics in the Middle East.
