Qatar is reviewing its role as a mediator between Israel and Hamas, the prime minister of the country that plays a key role in the Gaza ceasefire talks announced today (17.4.24).
“We are in the process of a comprehensive review of our role because some politicians are abusing this role to advance their own goals,” Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani said at a joint press conference with the Turkish foreign minister. Hakan Fidan.
He said his country would take “in due course a decision” on whether or not to continue to be involved in the talks.
Recently, Qatar reacted strongly to a statement by US Democratic Congressman Steny Hoyer who asked it to put pressure on Hamas.
Hoyer said Qatar should signal to Hamas that there will be “repercussions” if it blocks “progress” on a temporary ceasefire and the release of hostages held in Gaza.
Qatar described the attitude of the American politician as “unconstructive”.
