Qatar hopes efforts to end Gaza war will succeed: Dr Al Ansari
Dr Al Ansari expressed hope that these efforts would succeed, unlike previous attempts that were not implemented on the ground. Regarding the visit of American envoy Steve Witkoff to Doha or Cairo, Dr Al Ansari said that there are currently no confirmations, but communication continues on a daily basis with the American envoy. As for Netanyahu's conditions regarding ending the war in the Gaza Strip, Dr Al Ansari said that the mediation is concerned with official responses to the proposed draft, not with media statements issued by various parties. He emphasised that the primary goal is to reach the fastest possible ceasefire to spare lives, in light of the daily humanitarian losses in the Gaza Strip due to bombing, food and medicine shortages, and the deterioration of the health sector. He confirmed that the proposal accepted by Hamas includes a clear plan to reach a comprehensive agreement to end the war. Regarding Arab and Islamic coordination, Dr Al Ansari referred to the statement issued mid-month by the Ministries of Foreign Affairs of 31 Arab and Islamic countries, which condemned the Israeli Prime Minister's statements about what is called Greater Israel vision. He said that there is near-daily coordination between foreign ministers of Arab and Islamic countries and their counterparts in friendly countries to unify positions regarding Israeli escalation. Dr Al Ansari underlined that Israeli officials are now presenting positions that go beyond the occupation of Gaza or the West Bank or the isolation of Jerusalem, to include talk of occupying sovereign Arab countries, which constitutes a clear violation of international law. He said Qatar has repeatedly condemned these practices, including the settlement plan to separate East Jerusalem from the West Bank, stressing that such policies will not bring security to Israel and will not lead to calming the situation in the region. The official spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs addressed the US-Russia summit that brought together US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska. He expressed Qatar's hope that these efforts would contribute to reaching a comprehensive and sustainable solution to the Russia-Ukraine crisis, reiterating Qatar's position calling for peaceful solutions. He said Qatar initiated humanitarian solutions, most notably the reunification of children affected by the war with their families, confirming that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, through Minister of State for International Cooperation HE Maryam bint Ali bin Nasser Al Misnad, is continuing follow up on this file with the concerned parties. Dr Al Ansari also referred to the continued efforts of Qatar in supporting the peace process in the Republic of the Congo. He said Minister of State at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs HE Dr Mohammed bin Abdulaziz bin Saleh Al Khulaifi is in constant contact with the concerned parties. 'Qatar is working to facilitate negotiations despite the complexity of the situation, with a commitment to finding constructive solutions and supporting the will of the parties to reach a sustainable agreement,' he said.
