US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says he is urging the Palestinians and Israelis to resume political engagement and said of recent violence on the border with the Gaza Strip that he believed Israel had the right to defend itself.
Speaking in Amman at a news conference on Monday with Jordan's Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi, Pompeo also said the United States was "in perfect accord" with Jordan on Syria, including the preservation of a "de-escalation zone" in the south.
