At Elisabeta Palace, the workplace of the Romanian Royal Family, Her Majesty Margareta was waiting for her guest in front of the entrance. The eldest daughter of King Michael I invited the Hashemite King’s mother to visit her at the palace, while Princess Muna is invited by the Romanian government to make an official trip to Romania. The invitation from the royal family also served as a thank you for the invitation that King Abdullah had sent to Margareta and her husband Radu, on the occasion of the wedding of his eldest son. Margareta and Radu of Romania had been invited to the wedding of Crown Prince Hussein, among more than sixty kings, queens, princes, princesses and presidents.

During his exile, King Michael I of Romania met King Hussein of Jordan on several occasions, both in Europe and in the United States. His wife, Queen Anne of Romania, visited Jordan in 1995. Their eldest daughter, Margareta, has visited Jordan on numerous occasions. The Guardian of the Crown visited Jordan nine times between 1996 and the last visit for the wedding of Crown Prince Hussein in 2023. As for King Abdullah II, he visited Romania in 2004 and 2009.

It was also a reunion for Margareta and Muna. They crossed paths at the wedding of Crown Prince Hussein last year but also in other royal contexts.

The Royal House recalls that Romania and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan established diplomatic relations on 2 April 1965. Since 1974, diplomatic missions have been operating in the capitals of both countries.
