King Abdullah arrives home from Paris

Jordanian King Abdullah Bin al-Hussein and his wife, Queen Rania, returned on Thursday to Amman following a four-day state visit to France, during which he opened a street in Paris in the name of his father, King Hussein.

The Jordanian news agency, Petra, said that the Jordanian royal plane stopped on its way back at Larnaca's airport in Cyprus to accompany Crown Prince Hamzeh, who completed the military training he had to make there in the course of his study in the British military academy of Sandhurst.

During his visit to Paris, the Jordanian king held talks with French President Jacque Chirac and high-ranking French officials that centered on means of giving the Middle East peace process a push forward and developing bilateral relations.
