India and Jordan on Thursday decided to step up defence cooperation to combat terror and prevent cyber security crimes as Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Jordan King Abdullah II held talks on key strategic issues after giving a clear message that terrorism and radicalisation are not linked to any religion.
The two leaders discussed a gamut of issues ranging from Syrian refugees to Palestine and resolved to enhance cooperation in the economic sphere, TS Tirumurti, Secretary (Economic Relations) in the External Affairs Ministry, told reporters.
After extensive talks between the leaders, the two sides signed 12 agreements in a wide range of areas including defence, health and medicine.
