The two sides stressed the importance of ensuring that efforts seeking to build on the US-Iran ceasefire agreement lead to a sustainable resolution, one that addresses all causes of tension over the past years, ensures adherence to international law, and respects the sovereignty of states, the principles of good neighborliness, and freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz in accordance with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

Safadi and Sheikh Jarrah stressed the need to halt all illegal Israeli measures that undermine efforts toward a two-state solution and the chances of achieving a just and comprehensive peace, particularly settlement construction and expansion, land annexation, restrictions on freedom of worship, and attempts to alter the historical and legal status quo of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem.
Both sides also discussed the situation in Lebanon. They emphasized the need to consolidate the ceasefire and support the Lebanese government in its efforts to assert its sovereignty over all its territory and to ensure a state monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force.
