The meeting discussed Middle East issues and the repercussions of regional crises on Jordan's economy.

He pointed out that current efforts are focused on financial and economic stability, increasing growth rates and employment. The minister noted the current economic challenges and the financial and humanitarian consequences that Jordan is facing due the regional situation, especially those of hosting the Syrian refugees and the pressure they caused on the national economy, the infrastructure, and the services sectors such education and health, which added great burdens on the general budget and the host communities.
