Qatar’s emir appeals to world leaders before meeting US President Trump on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

\n\tQatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani used the pulpit of the UN General Assembly to attack the four neighbors that have imposed a blockade against it, accusing them of \u2018terrorism\u2019-like behavior, AL JAZEERA reported.<\/p>\n

\n\tSheikh Tamim also met privately with US President Donald Trump at the annual diplomatic meet in New York on Tuesday as Doha sought to win international support in its 106-day-old spat with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain and Egypt.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe emir blasted the \u2018unjust blockade\u2019 as a \u2018betrayal\u2019 from his neighbors that had ultimately failed to bring \u2018Qatar to its knees and to capitulate to a total tutelage to be imposed on it\u2019.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe blockade aimed to pressure Qataris via foodstuffs, medicine and ripping off consanguineous relations to force them change their political affiliation to destabilize a sovereign country,” he said in a 22-minute address from the UN’s iconic marble rostrum.<\/p>\n

\n\t“Isn’t this one of the definitions of terrorism?” Sheikh Tamim asked.<\/p>\n

\n\tTurkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan spoke in the same UN session after Sheikh Tamim and showed support for Qatar in a wide-ranging speech.<\/p>\n

\n\tErdogan called for the lifting of sanctions negatively affecting the living conditions of the Qatari people and urged the region\u2019s \u2018elder brother\u2019 Saudi Arabia to show sincere will for the resolution of the issue.<\/p>\n

\n\tTrump initially sided with the Saudis and called Qatar a \u2018funder of terrorism\u2019 but has since worked to broker a way out of the crisis and in his meeting with Sheikh Tamim on the sidelines of the General Assembly on Tuesday renewed his vow to help solve the crisis in the Persian Gulf.<\/p>\n

\n\t“We are right now in a situation where we’re trying to solve a problem in the Middle East and I think we’ll get it solved,” Trump told reporters before the meeting, adding that he has a \u2018strong feeling it will be solved pretty quickly\u2019.<\/p>\n

\n\tSheikh Tamim reiterated Doha’s call for dialogue and thanked the US president, noting that Washington’s \u2018interference will help a lot\u2019.<\/p>\n

\n\tSheikh Tamim was flanked by Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani and other Qatari officials; the US delegation included Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, National Security Advisor HR McMaster, Trump\u2019s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
