Jordan calls for dialogue between Saudi Arabia and US to solve oil dispute – The National

Jordan on Tuesday called for discussions between the US and Saudi Arabia to solve the disagreement between the two countries over oil prices.

"This issue should be dealt with through direct and balanced dialogue," Foreign Ministry spokesman Sinan Al Majali said.
