Doha: The Amir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad, reiterated his country's strong condemnation of the attack on Al-Udeid Air Base by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
According to Kuwait News Agency, this statement was made during a phone call between Sheikh Tamim and Iranian President Dr. Masoud Pezeshkian, as reported by the Qatari Amiri Diwan.
Sheikh Tamim emphasized that the attack is completely inconsistent with the principle of good neighbourliness and the close relations between Qatar and Iran. He highlighted Qatar's longstanding commitment to dialogue with Iran and its diplomatic efforts to maintain regional stability.
