His Excellency Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, affirmed that his country has made great efforts to reach diplomatic solutions to the current crisis. However, Qatar faced unacceptable attacks from Israel and Iran during its mediation efforts. He explained that Qatar received warnings half an hour before the start of the war, which prevented it from intervening in the initial days. The attack on Qatari territory occurred during the war, involving the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the laying of mines in an international waterway, posing a threat to the region's lifeline. He emphasized that Qatar maintains long-standing relations with Iran and seeks to preserve good neighborly relations despite disagreements, and that its relations with the United States are strategic and vital for its national security. He also confirmed that Qatar condemned the Israeli attacks on Gaza, describing them as war crimes, and rejects the funding accusations propagated by Israel against Qatar, clarifying that Qatari funding is directed toward building schools and hospitals in Gaza. He indicated that Qatar continues its efforts in mediation, takes pride in its record of fostering peaceful and diplomatic relations, and sees great potential in the region if all countries unite their efforts despite political and geographical complexities.
