Qatar’s foreign minister hails ‘positive’ stance in UAE talks
Al Jazeera
Qatar’s chief diplomat expresses optimism about overcoming differences with the UAE after the Gulf rift.
Qatar has held several rounds of talks with the United Arab Emirates to mend ties following an agreement to end the Gulf dispute and there is a “positive vision” to overcome differences, the Qatari foreign minister said. Saudi Arabia in January announced a deal to end the dispute in which the kingdom, the UAE, and Bahrain, along with Egypt, severed economic and diplomatic ties with fellow Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member Qatar in June 2017 and imposed a land, sea, and air blockade, accusing it of supporting “terrorism”. Qatar repeatedly denied the claims.More Related News
