Qatar’s delegate attempts to perturb Arab FMs meeting today

CAIRO – 12 September 2017: Qatar’s permanent representative to the Arab League, Saif bin Muqaddam al-Buainain attempted to perturb the Arab Foreign ministers’ consultative meeting held Tuesday at the Arab League (AL).

The meeting was held ahead of the activities of the 148th session of the AL Council at the ministerial level, set to kick off later in the day to discuss the progress of joint Arab action.

The delegate of the emirate of Qatar reportedly fussed over the Arab League’s alleged negligence of the Syrian Cause, which was already discussed during the AL’s preparatory meetings held Monday evening.

Saudi Arabia’s delegates came up against the Qatari delegate’s inappropriate manner of speaking.

The foreign ministers' meeting took up consultations on items referred by the AL Council with regard to upgrading the AL and appointing a new undersecretary for Ahmed Aboul Gheit.

Also, the meeting tackled the latest developments of the regional crises and Arab efforts aimed at putting an end to Israeli interference in the African continent.
