Both leaders made the statements during their meeting in the Egyptian capital of Cairo, Egyptian Presidential Spokesman, Bassam Radi, said, in a press release.
King Abdullah arrived in Cairo earlier Monday, on an official visit for talks with al-Sisi.
During the meeting, they reaffirmed intensified efforts to restart the peace talks, in line with the international resolutions and the Arab peace initiative and on the basis of the two-state solution, with the establishment of a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
