Jordan hosts regional talks on Syria's return to Arab League and normalizing ties.

Jordan will host a meeting of Arab foreign ministers and Syria's top diplomat on Monday to discuss Syria's return to the Arab League as part of a broader political settlement of Syria's more than decade-old conflict. The meeting comes two weeks after talks in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia between the Gulf Cooperation Council, as well as Egypt, Jordan and Iraq, failed to reach agreement on Syria's possible return to the Arab fold. The Jordanian initiative calls on Damascus to engage with Arab governments collectively on a step-by-step road map to end the conflict.
