The Iraqi government on Thursday confirmed that the tripartite summit between Jordan, Iraq and Egypt is still in place and business between the three countries has not stopped.

Cabinet spokesman Hassan Nazim said that the summit is still ongoing, but no date for the meeting has been set yet, noting that there are discussions on the issue of electrical interconnection between these countries.

The previous summit, which was held in Amman, identified paths for economic and cultural work and trade cooperation.

The tripartite summit between the three countries, which was supposed to be held in Baghdad on March 27, was postponed due to the train accidents that took place in Egypt and killed dozens of Egyptian citizens.
