UN Secretary General tries to ensure a lasting peace
Jordan, Politics, 3/19/1998

UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said that he would work with all the countries and leaders in the region to ensure a lasting peace, speaking at a joint press conference after his talks with Jordan's Crown Prince Hassan.

"The UN is supporting the US efforts to overcome the deadlock in the peacemaking between Israel and Palestine," he said.

In looking at peace and security in the region, we should be looking at the long term in addition to working on the individual crisis, he added.

Annan arrived in Amman for an official visit two days ago. He visited refugees camps in Jordan.
