Qatar says it is ‘too early’ to talk about Palestinian displacement

Qatar says it is too early to talk about the resettlement of Palestinians from the enclave, and that Doha is busy trying to bring about the second phase of a deal to halt the war between Israel and Hamas.

Asked by Fox News if Trump’s proposal for a US takeover of Gaza would help or hurt the ceasefire talks, Qatar’s foreign ministry spokesperson Majed Al-Ansari says: “I don’t think it’s a time now to start commenting on specific ideas.”

“We know that there is a lot of trauma with the Palestinian side when it comes to displacement. However, again, it’s too early to talk about this, because we don’t know how this war will end.”

Al-Ansari also sats that Qatar is ready to mediate between the Trump administration and Iran for the stability of the whole region.

“We have been, even during the first Trump administration, working with the administration over getting an arrangement with the Iranians. And we think it’s the role that we can play now, we are fitted to do it,” Al-Ansari says.
