Saudi hashtag refutes Doha’s lies about KSA, UAE relations

CAIRO - 20 August 2017: Saudi Twitter users refute Qatar’s lies about the relations between Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates by launching “Love of Emirates in the hearts of Saudis” hashtag on Sunday.

Doha has resorted lately to spread lies and fabrications to undermine the distinguished relations between the UAE and Saudi Arabia after Arab’s boycott to Qatari regime over terror-related accusations

Saudi hashtag “Love of Emirates in the hearts of Saudis” was ranked at the top of global hashtags with a huge number of uses.

A Saudi Twitter user said in a tweet, “Emirati people and leaders are in our hearts and the Gulf will celebrate assigning Sheikh Abdullah bin Ali bin Abdullah as a prince of Qatar soon.”

Qatar’s relations with several Arab and Gulf states have been strained since May 24, when the Qatari state-run news agency reported Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani’s statements regarding Gulf foreign policy with Iran, describing it as “unwise.”

On June 5, 2017, several countries, including Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, severed diplomatic ties with Doha over accusations of Qatar backing and funding terrorist groups.

On June 23, 2017, the four Arab states have requested 13 demands from Qatar, which were presented by Kuwait, the mediator in the crisis. The demands included that Qatar shut down Al-Jazeera TV network, cut diplomatic ties with Iran, stop financing and supporting terror groups, including the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood, and end Turkey's military presence in Doha.
