Trump has called Qatar a "great ally" of the US and urged Israel to be "very careful" with its actions
Doha is one of the mediators for the conflict in Gaza, where the largest US military base in the Middle East is located. The US Government claimed to have informed the Qatari authorities of the Israeli plan, but Doha denied receiving the warning.
U.S. PresidentDonald Trump has stressed that Qatar is Washington's "great ally" and has urged Israelto be "very careful" with its actions following last week 's Israeli Army bombing of a delegation of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the capital, Doha.
"We're with them. They've been a great ally," Trump said. "Qatar has been a great ally. They've had a very difficult life because they're in the middle of it all, so they have to be politically correct, but I tell them they've been a great ally of the United States."
Thus, he has told Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that the country must be "very careful": "They must do something with Hamas, but Qatar has been a great ally of the US," he repeated, stressing that the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, is a "wonderful person."
Trump has also told Doha that he must "do a better job in public relations." "People talk very badly about them, and it shouldn't be. Qatar has been a great ally, and Israel and the rest must be careful. When people are attacked, you have to be careful, "he said.
Israel killed five members of the Palestinian group and one Qatari agent in the bombing. It was an action against the Hamas delegation. The attack came when they were meeting to discuss Trump's latest ceasefire proposal for the Gaza Strip. Qatari Prime Minister Mohamed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani called it "state terrorism."
Doha is one of the mediators for the conflict in the Gaza Strip, where the largest US military base in the Middle East is located. The US Government claimed to have informed the Qatari authorities of the Israeli plan, which Doha denied.
