Diab upon end of Doha trip: We found in sisterly Qatar what we were looking for

2^min

Caretaker Prime Minister Hassan Diab said on Tuesday that “Doha has always opened its heart to the Lebanese and has never given up on Lebanon.”

Diab’s comments were made in a statement issued at the end of his official trip to Qatar whereby he noted that he deliberated with His Highness the Emir, His Excellency the Prime Minister, and Qatari officials on Arab affairs and the consequences of the absence of Arab solidarity on the Lebanese crisis.

“We have asserted the need for Arabs to move back into fraternity, for the region is undergoing a painful situation that requires the highest degree of coordination among brothers, with dangerous repercussions for Arab countries in particular, and which threaten our present and our future,” the statement added.

“Unfortunately, Lebanon is going through a difficult phase, lacks a unified Arab effort and a unifying role that brings Lebanese people together, urges them to achieve mutual understanding, and blocks the way to exploit their differences,” he added.

Diab concluded by stressing that Lebanon found “in sisterly Qatar what we were looking for,” adding that meetings were held within a framework of “unsurprising fraternity.”

“The State of Qatar demonstrated its firm stance aiming at supporting Lebanon and its people, and preserving Lebanon’s security and stability,” Diab stressed.
