Iran and Gulf countries should “focus on the principles of good neighborly relations, mutual respect and the need to resolve any Gulf-Iranian differences through dialogue and negotiations,” Qatar’s Emir has said.
According to Reuters, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani telephoned Iranian President Hassan Rouhani this week to wish him a blessed Eid. He also urged Rouhani to work toward resolving rising tensions between it, Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries, who share differing views on Syria, Yemen and other issues.
