EU exerts efforts to solve Gulf crisis


(MENAFN) The EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Frederica Mogherini said yesterday that the European Union (EU) supports efforts being made by Kuwait to mediate a solution to the current Gulf crisis.

Mogherini called for "dialogue" between all Gulf countries involved in the rift.

"The unity of the Gulf would not only serve the security and stability of the region, but it serves the overall interests of the international community," the EU official stressed.

In early June, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt and Bahrain severed diplomatic and trade ties with Qatar, accusing Doha of supporting terrorism and destabilizing the Middle East, while Qatar, denied the accusations, describing attempts to diplomatically isolate it as a violation of international law and its national sovereignty.
