The Ministry's spokesperson said in a brief press release that the Iraqi Minister of Foreign Affairs, Fuad Hussien, received his Egyptian and Jordanian counterparts, Sameh Shokri and Ayman al-Safadi.

The Ministry announced yesterday that the Foreign Ministers of the two Arab countries will arrive in Baghdad to discuss the preparations to the Trilateral Summit that will bring the Egyptian President, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, the Jordanian King, Abdullah II bin al-Hussein, and the Iraqi Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kadhimi.
