The Gulf nation is trying to mediate the rising tensions and threats of war between the US and Iran, APA reports, citing AlJazeera.
“There are expectations that the current tension will lead to an escalation in the region, and we are trying to de-escalate the situation,” Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari said at a news conference in Doha.
“We know that any escalation … would have catastrophic results in the region and beyond and, therefore, we want to avoid that as much as possible.”
Al-Ansari added diplomacy is the most effective way to resolve regional crises, and “we are working on this with our neighbours and partners.”
“We are a party to the contacts aimed at calming the situation in the region and resolving the disputes between Washington and Tehran,” he said.
