Egypt coalition considering new sanctions against Qatar

Moscow 28 Jun (ANA) - The United Arab Emirates' ambassador to Russia says Arab states opposed to Qatar, which includes Egypt, are considering new sanctions against it. Omar Ghobash told The Guardian newspaper that the new measures could include asking their trading partners to choose between them or Qatar. Egypt, along with Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain, has accused Qatar of supporting terrorism and has issued a list of thirteen demands which include curbing ties with Iran and closing the broadcaster, Al Jazeera. Qatar has denied that it supports terrorism and has described the demands as unreasonable.(ANA)
