Qatar called on the United States and Iran to resume diplomatic negotiations between the two countries. The appeal was made after a new exchange of attacks between Washington and Tehran, which increased tensions between the two nations.
The Qatari government expressed its concern about the escalation of the conflict and called for both parties to return to the negotiating table. Qatar has played a mediating role in international conflicts and seeks to facilitate dialogue between the powers.
The most recent exchange of attacks came to aggravate the already tense relations between the United States and Iran. Both countries have maintained a prolonged dispute over nuclear issues and sanctions, among other matters.
Qatar, which hosts an American military base, has tried to use its strategic position to encourage dialogue and avoid further escalation of the conflict in the Middle East region.
