BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 25. Qatar has reaffirmed its support for mediation and diplomatic efforts aimed at resolving the crisis involving Iran, despite the United States imposing sanctions on Tehran.

The Qatari official indicated that the latest economic measures imposed by Washington would not change Doha’s support for mediation.
Qatar has positioned diplomacy and dialogue as central to its approach to regional disputes, including tensions involving Iran and the United States.
