Qatar Emir Addresses Regional Developments in Call with Gulf Leaders
(MENAFN) Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani held separate telephone calls Saturday with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to address regional developments and coordinate efforts to reduce tensions and foster stability.
A statement from Qatar's Amiri Diwan said Sheikh Tamim and the Saudi crown prince reviewed bilateral ties and avenues for deeper cooperation while exchanging assessments of key regional and international developments. Both parties discussed backing for political solutions aimed at strengthening security and underscored the importance of comprehensive, lasting resolutions that address the underlying causes of regional crises.
In a separate call, Sheikh Tamim and the UAE president discussed bilateral relations and diplomatic efforts to ease tensions and advance political solutions, the Emirates News Agency (WAM) reported. Both sides stressed the importance of supporting diplomatic channels to reinforce regional security and stability.
The calls came hours after Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir concluded a visit to Tehran, where he met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf as part of Islamabad's mediation between Washington and Tehran.
The flurry of contacts unfolded at a pivotal regional juncture, with intensified diplomatic activity underway to broker a US-Iran agreement and reports that Tehran had submitted a new formula for a potential deal with Washington.
Earlier Saturday, US President Donald Trump said an agreement with Iran had been "largely negotiated," while noting that final aspects and details remained under discussion and would be announced "shortly." Trump also declared that the Strait of Hormuz "will be opened" as part of the understandings under negotiation.
