Doha, March 05 (QNA) - HE Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani received a phone call on Thursday from HE Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Moldova, Mihai Popsoi.

The two officials discussed the recent military escalation in the region and its serious implications for regional and international security, as well as ways to resolve disputes through peaceful means.

During the call, HE Sheikh Mohammed described the Iranian attack on Qatari territory as a blatant violation of the State of Qatar's sovereignty. He stressed that such actions are incompatible with the principles of good neighborliness and cannot be justified under any pretext.

He added that Qatar has consistently sought to remain outside regional conflicts and facilitate dialogue between Iran and the international community, but repeated attacks on its territory undermine the foundations of bilateral relations.

HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs also called for an immediate end to escalatory actions, a return to dialogue, and the prioritization of reason and diplomacy to contain the crisis and safeguard regional security.

HE Popsoi said Moldova was closely following developments in the region and urged all parties to exercise restraint and return to diplomatic negotiations to avoid further instability. (QNA)
