Swiss ambassador to Jordan, Hans-Peter Lenz, Monday, said the Jordanian-Swiss relations are “good” and there are plenty of opportunities to develop them in various political and socio-economic fields.
He said his country takes into account the developments in the situation in the region and its ramification on Jordan.
Speaking to Petra on the occasion of Switzerland’s national day, which falls Tuesday, the envoy said Jordanian and Swiss officials will meet for a series of political dialogues in Amman next month.
