The leadership of Jordan always backs Azerbaijan within such international organizations as the United Nations, Organization of the Islamic Cooperation and others.
Of special importance is the resolution passed by Jordanian Senate June 19, 2013 on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Khojaly genocide.
