About two months have passed since Arab reconciliation in the Persian Gulf, which was primarily between Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and for this reason, the process of resuming relations between Riyadh and Doha is accelerating more than the rest.
During this period, after the GCC summit in Al-Ala, Saudi Arabia, and the announcement of a compromise, bilateral and non-group talks were held between the parties to the crisis to resolve issues and problems between the two countries. Of course, in the meantime, these talks have not only taken place between Bahrain and Qatar. Some time ago, the Bahraini foreign minister announced that Doha had rejected Manama’s invitation to hold talks to resolve the dispute. Bahraini Foreign Minister Abdul Latif bin Rashid Al-Zayani has cited his country’s invitation to the media as unanswered.
The fact that the talks are bilateral, not collective and multilateral, is in Qatar’s interest and shows that there is no longer a consensus between the four countries (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, and Bahrain) in pursuing their demands and issues against Doha.
After Saudi Arabia, Qatar’s relations with Egypt have accelerated and another delegation traveled from Doha to Cairo. This is the second round of talks between the two sides in a week.
