20 Feb 2017

(MENAFN) Jordanian Prime Minister Hani Mulki stated the importance of accelerating procedures to reopen the Tureibil border crossing with Iraq, and to start building the oil pipeline and boost trade.

During a meeting with an Iraqi economic delegation to follow up on Mulki’s visit to Iraq last month, he expressed optimism that both countries will be able to restore trade to its previous level.

On the other hand, the Iraqi delegates highlighted the need to rebuild war-affected regions after the end of military operations in Mosul.

Earlier, the delegation met with Jordan Investment Commission President Thabet Elwir and discussed economic cooperation.
