Qatar is not supporting normalization with Israel

Qatar won’t join Persian Gulf Arab neighbors in establishing diplomatic relations with the Israeli regime until its conflict with the Palestinians is resolved.

Alkhater spoke to Bloomberg a day before the Tel Aviv regime and the United Arab Emirates are to sign the first treaty between a Persian Gulf Arab nation and the occupied lands.

Bahrain on Friday agreed to normalize relations with Israel, becoming the latest Arab nation to do so as part of a broader diplomatic push by US President Donald Trump and his administration to further ease the regime's relative isolation in the Middle East.

Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also strongly condemned the Bahrain-Israeli tie normalization, calling it a shameful and humiliating act by the Bahrain government.

In a tweet on Monday, Iranian FM Zarif wrote, “Donald Trump desperately needed a campaign photo. His son-in-law blackmailed their regional clients into giving him one. The only problem: 'Peace agreements' being signed are NOT between foes but longstanding allies. What a diplomatic coup! Stay tuned for more...”
