King Abdullah II said he felt "among family" as he joined the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi for lunch.

The King of Jordan shared pictures of him dining with Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, on Sunday.

They were joined by Sheikh Khalid bin Mohamed, Deputy National Security Adviser and Member of the Executive Council, his daughter and other family members.

"Today when I met my dear brother Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and his beloved sons and grandchildren, I felt I’m among family," King Abdullah wrote on Twitter.

"I pray to God for a lasting friendship and love between our two brotherly countries and peoples, as it has between our two families over the years."

King Abdullah's arrival in Abu Dhabi on Saturday, for talks regarding regional affairs and challenges, was his latest visit to the capital. The king, Crown Prince Hussein bin Abdullah and Jordanian military commanders joined Sheikh Mohamed for a joint drill in Al Dhafra last month. He also visited the capital in May.
