Qatar’s priority is de-escalation: Analysis

The current priority for Qatar is de-escalation, Rashid al-Mohanadi, a nonresident fellow at the Middle East Council on Global Affairs, has told Al Jazeera. “I don’t see a diplomatic off-rank forming anytime soon … we might see in the coming days, depends on how intensive the strikes are on both sides”, he said. Meanwhile, Qatar's Foreign Ministry has released a statement. It says: The State of Qatar expresses its strongest condemnation of the targeting of Qatari territories with Iranian ballistic missiles, considering it a flagrant violation of its national sovereignty, a direct assault on its security and the safety of its lands, and an unacceptable escalation that threatens the security and stability of the region. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirms that the State of Qatar reserves its full right to respond to this targeting, in accordance with the provisions of international law and in proportion to the nature of the aggression, in defense of its sovereignty and to safeguard its security and national interests. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasizes that the State of Qatar has been and remains among the first to call for dialogue with the Islamic Republic of Iran, and has advocated for continuing on this principle as the optimal foundation for addressing differences and resolving disputes through peaceful means, thereby sparing the region the risks of escalation.
