agreements in the best possible way and to encourage ministers to

has an abundance of tourist and religious places such as the Baptism

The prime minister said the sense of security and stability that
Jordan enjoys and its location in the heart of the Middle East could
be a starting point for Armenia to access the region's markets.
The Armenian president emphasized that his country is keen to
strengthen ties and increase cooperation between the two countries,
stressing the importance of the private sector in advancing relations.
