The meetings precede the ministerial preparatory session, to be chaired by Rania Al-Mashat, Egypt’s Minister of Planning and Economic Development, and International Cooperation, and Yarub Qudah, Jordan’s Minister of Industry, Trade, and Supply.
The higher joint committee will then convene under the chairmanship of Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly and his Jordanian counterpart Jafar Hassan.
