Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, who’s long called for a summit between leaders of the six-member Persian Gulf Cooperation Council and the Islamic Republic, said his government was “hopeful that this would happen and we still believe this should happen.”
"This is also a desire that's shared by other PGCC (Persian Gulf Cooperation Council) countries," he told Bloomberg.
The Qatari foreign minister added that his government was supporting ongoing discussions between Iran and South Korea to secure the release of an oil tanker seized by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard early this month.
This is while, Qatar has recently been able to resolve its diplomatic dispute with Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain and the UAE.
