Amman - King Abdullah II of Jordan flew to Riyadh Wednesday for talks with the Saudi leadership at the start of a new round of regional diplomacy to spur the stalled Palestinian-Israeli talks in the wake of what officials labeled as a successful trip to Washington last week, officials said.

King Abdullah planned similar meetings in the coming few days with Egyptian President Hosny Mubarak and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, they added.

The monarch is due to brief Saudi King Abdullah on the outcome of his talks at the White House on April 21 with US President Barack Obama, who voiced strong support to the two-state solution and to the Arab peace initiative.

King Abdullah met with Obama with an authorization from Arab foreign ministers who met earlier in the Jordanian capital to push forward the quest of peace on the basis of the Arab blueprint that offers Israel recognition by all Arab states if it quits all Arab lands it occupied in the 1967 Six-Day War, including East Jerusalem.

Jordanian editorialists suggested that Abdullah would aim to muster world pressure on the Israeli government to accept the two- state solution that envisages the creation of an independent Palestinian state that lives in peace with Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his far-right Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman have dropped strong hints against the two-state vision, offering Palestinians instead "economic peace". (dpa)
