Paris sees mass demonstration against Qatar on Friday

CAIRO – 15 September 2017: A number of representatives of political parties and human rights organized a massive demonstration in Paris on Friday, with placards and calls for the world to stand against terrorism of Qatar.

In a show of solidarity with the “International Campaign Against Qatar’s Financing of Terrorism,” launched two days ago, the protesters hoisted signs reading "Qatari Terrorism Threatens the World” and “We Stand Against Qatar’s Terrorism," repudiating Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani’s current tour to a number of European countries, including France and Germany.

Also, a delegation of the “Arab diplomacy” and some representatives of Arab countries were in attendance.

The protesters demanded justice for the thousands of innocent people who lost their lives in Qatar-linked acts of terrorism in Europe, Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Yemen, calling on the French parliament to suspend relations with Qatar and on the international community to impose economic and diplomatic sanctions on Doha.
