Qatar hopeful about signing of Iran-US deal, warns disagreements will not be solved in ‘mere days’
Qatar hopeful about signing of Iran-US deal, warns disagreements will not be solved in ‘mere days’ Qatari foreign ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari delivered comments to a press conference on Tuesday in which he expressed hope in the success of the Iran-US deal, but also warned of challenges ahead. “We are on the right track towards regional security. Obviously, there are a lot of challenges coming ahead, but let’s take this as a moment to enjoy some optimism,” al-Ansari told reporters in Doha. Such issues include disagreements over Iran’s nuclear programme, which he said “will not be resolved in mere days”. However, the minister also expressed hope that “the MoU will open navigation in Hormuz so that Qatar can continue supplying LNG” and that it will be the beginning of fruitful negotiations. He added that Qatar is “supporting the Pakistani-led mediation” and affirmed that “in Qatar we don’t take lightly our responsibility towards regional security” to prevent the return of an escalation of hostilities.
