Qatar speaks for the first time of the message that King Salman has not responded

"The blockade imposed on Qatar by Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Egypt, has been a major test of relations with Turkey," said the spokeswoman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from Qatar, Lulwa Rashid Al Khater.

"There are not yet any positive signs to solve the Gulf crisis," she said in an interview with the Turkish Daily Sabah newspaper. We regret that the social fabric of the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is torn apart. It's the biggest loss we see. "

Regarding the impact of the boycott on relations between Arab countries, especially the Gulf states, Al Khater said: "June 2019 will approve the passage of two years of illegal blockade to the state of Qatar: No positive sign has been shown so far.Qatari citizens are still prevented from entering the besieged countries. "Qatar has called on all parties to resolve this problem through dialogue. from the first day, but until now, all efforts have failed. "

"The most recent example is a letter addressed to Saudi King Salman bin Abdul Aziz by the Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jair Al-Sabah.There was no positive response to this message.

However, according to al-Khater, Qatar continues to believe that dialogue is the key to resolving the dispute, explaining that "it has been proven beyond a doubt that the allegations on which this crisis was based were false and without foundation. "

"The greatest achievement is the fact that the Qatari government has been forced to diversify its economy following the blockade," she said. "Seventy percent of our food and medical supplies came from Saudi Arabia before the blockade because we wanted to support neighboring countries." When the decision to close the border and cut food was taken, Qatar has diversified its imports and we import them today from all over the world ".

Regarding the US desire to form an "Arab NATO", Khater said that no alliance could be built as long as the situation remains the same in the Arab world. "We have reiterated to the Americans that no coalition could succeed if the alliance members did not agree on the fundamental principles that govern their relations, and no alliance based on hostility. towards a country could not be established, "she said.

"To be a successful alliance, it must be based on the common interests and collective interests of its members and the region in which it operates," she said.

The Gulf region is experiencing the worst crisis in its history, which began on June 5, 2017 when Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Egypt severed ties with Qatar and imposed "punitive measures" on the grounds that they supported terrorism.
