Jordan's King Abdullah has returned from Baghdad, where he met with Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki.
He was the first Arab head of state to visit Iraq since the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003. The Iraqi premier's office said the two leaders discussed improving bilateral relations in all fields. In June, Maliki visited Amman to renew a 2006 deal to sell discounted oil to its neighbour, which relies on Iraq for most of its fuel needs. Jordan also hosts over 500,000 Iraqi refugees, who have fled violence in their war-ravaged country.
