US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met Jordan's King Abdullah in the Red Sea town of Aqaba on Thursday as he arrived in the region for talks on Syria following the overthrow of Assad.
Blinken will reportedly discuss US priorities of ensuring Syria's chemical weapons stockpiles are secured and destroyed, facilitate the flow of humanitarian aid and that the country is not used as a "base of terrorism," the State Department said.
Later on Thursday, Blinken will head to Turkey.
