AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Jordan is recalling its ambassador to Romania in June over Bucharest's decision to move its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem al-Quds, the kingdom's official government newspaper reported.
King Abdullah II of Jordan approved a decision of the council of ministers to recall the country's ambassador from June 1, according to the newspaper.
In late March, Jordan's king scrapped a planned visit to Romania following an announcement by Romanian Prime Minister Viorica Dancila that her country's embassy in Israel would be moved to Jerusalem al-Quds.
However, Romanian President Klaus Iohannis said that relocating the embassy to Jerusalem would be in breach of international law.
