Doha, February 28 (QNA) - HE Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani received two telephone calls today, from HE Minister of Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation and Egyptian Expatriates Affairs of the sisterly Arab Republic of Egypt Dr. Badr Abdel-Aty, and HE Minister of Foreign Affairs of the sisterly Republic of Turkiye Hakan Fidan.

The calls dealt with discussing the developments of military escalation in the region and its dangerous repercussions on security and stability, both in the region and internationally. They also dealt with discussing ways to resolve all differences peacefully.

During the two calls, HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs stressed that targeting Qatari territory with Iranian ballistic missiles was a blatant violation of its national sovereignty, inconsistent with the principles of good neighborliness, and could not be accepted under any justification or pretext.

His Excellency pointed out in this regard that the State of Qatar has always been keen to distance itself from regional conflicts and has sought to facilitate dialogue between the Iranian side and the international community. However, the renewed targeting of its territory does not show good faith and threatens the understanding on which bilateral relations between the two countries were built.

For their part, Their Excellencies the Egyptian and Turkish Ministers of Foreign Affairs expressed their condemnation of the Iranian missile attack on Qatari territory, and deemed it a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of the State of Qatar, its airspace, international law, and the UN Charter.
