Dubai – (Masaader News)
Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain And Egypt has cut ties with Qatar on Monday, following a spat in diplomatic rift in the Gulf region in recent weeks. As reported by Al Arabiya.
Saudi Arabia has taken this decision as a result of “ serious and systematic violations committed by the authorities in Doha over the past years with the aim of creating strife among Saudi internal ranks, undermining its sovereignty and embracing various terrorist and sectarian groups aimed at destabilizing the region.”
the UAE announced its full support for the Saudi stance towards Qatar, saying the Gulf state has threatened stability and security in the region, and has manipulated and shirked responsibilities and agreements made with the Gulf states.
Meanwhile, Bahrain decided to sever ties with its neighbor “on the insistence of the State of Qatar to continue destabilizing the security and stability of the Kingdom of Bahrain and to intervene in its affairs”.
A statement to come out from Egypt indicates that one of the reasons was the Qatari government’s support of the Muslim Brotherhood, which Cairo has designated a terrorist group.
