Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will hold talks on Thursday with Jordanian officials on the war in Gaza, as the two countries take a tough line against the Israeli offensive. Mr Fidan would meet King Abdullah II during a two-day visit to Amman and discuss “the situation in Palestine”, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said. Ties between Turkey and Jordan have been cool for the last two decades, with differences over regional issues and unease in Amman over Ankara’s support for the Muslim Brotherhood.
