Qatari FM rules out normalization with Israel
Qatar’s Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani rules out normalization with Israel in an interview with Axios.
Al Thani says there had been some ties in the past “when there were prospects for peace” but that it had since “lost hope.”
He laments “the absence of a real commitment to a two-state solution.”
Qatar has had some ties with Jerusalem over aid to the Gaza Strip, and has transferred millions of dollars to the impoverished territory with Israel’s approval.
