Agreed to resume traffic in Qatar with Saudi Arabia, which has broken diplomatic relations

Saudi Arabia and Qatar in the Middle East, which had been disconnected for more than three years, have agreed to resume traffic.

At the meeting of the Gulf countries in the Middle East on the 5th, the focus will be on whether the two countries can move forward to resolve the conflict.

Saudi Arabia unilaterally claims that Qatar is threatening regional stability, severing diplomatic relations in June 2017 and increasing pressure with other Gulf countries by suspending direct flights and logistics to Qatar. I did.

In response, Kuwait and the United States, which wants to unite the Gulf countries to build a siege of Iran, have mediated.

Under these circumstances, Kuwait's Foreign Minister Ahmad announced on the 4th that Saudi Arabia and Qatar have agreed to open a land-sea-air border through state-owned communications.

It will be the first time in about three and a half years that traffic between the two countries will resume.

Meanwhile, Qatar's state news agency said Tamim will attend the GCC-Gulf Cooperation Council summit in Saudi Arabia on the 5th.

Saudi Arabia has so far called on Qatar to reduce diplomatic relations with its rivals Turkey and Iran and to close the satellite television station Al Jazeera, which has continued to report to support democratization in Arab countries, as conditions to release pressure. However, Qatar did not respond to this.

For this reason, the GCC summit will focus on whether the two countries can move forward to resolve the conflict.

Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs "Important Steps to Solution"

Turkey's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which has supported Qatar, said in a statement on the 4th, "It is an important step toward a solution. I hope that other sanctions on the people of Qatar will be lifted as soon as possible." We welcome you.
