President Kagame in Jordan for Aqaba Process Meeting

President Kagame has arrived in Aqaba, Jordan where he met with King Abdullah II ahead of the Aqaba Process Meeting on East Africa taking place tomorrow.

“Today’s bilateral meeting discussed enhancing ongoing areas of cooperation between Jordan and Rwanda”, said the Rwandan State House via tweeter.

The Aqaba Process Meeting is organized by Jordan King Abdullah II to assess security in South-East African region, particularly Mozambique and its environs. Rwanda has sent troops to Mozambique to assist the government in fighting against a four-year Islamist militant insurgency.

It is the third edition since Aqaba Meetings began in 2015, and this time it brings together leaders of East African countries to address issues of terrorism and how to combat it. 

The Aqaba Process initiative, launched by King Abdullah in 2015, aims to enhance security and military coordination and cooperation, as well as the exchange of expertise and information among various regional and global stakeholders, to counter terrorism within a holistic approach. (End).
