Berlin – Jordan’s King Abdullah II says Chancellor Angela Merkel should be commended for her decision to open Germany’s doors to hundreds of thousands of migrants and for her government’s support for his and other countries in the region dealing with the flood of refugees from Syria.

Jordan, with a population of about 6.5 million, hosts about 635,000 refugees from neighboring Syria. In brief remarks Friday after talks with Merkel, Abdullah said the chancellor’s approach brought a “breath of fresh air” into the challenges faced by his country and elsewhere.
Germany last year saw 890,000 migrants arrive and has also been a critical supporter in providing more aid for countries like Jordan and Turkey that share borders with Syria.
Abdullah told Merkel she raises “the moral bar very high.”
Ha! He takes zero refugees but he praises other countries for their contribution to his brothers
For every Muslim terrorist skunk that Germany lets in, That’s one less headache for Abdullah. Fortunately he doesn’t vote in German elections. Madam Merkel’s party has taken a serious hit in the last election due ,almost exclusively, to her insane immigrant policy. The biggest slap in the face for her was that in her own district , her party was soundly rejected.
