Iranian president in the phone conversation on Monday praised Qatar for patience and resistance against unfair Saudi-led blockade, saying the Islamic Republic of Iran considers the blockade as unfair and thinks that it can divide the region more than ever and intensify the tensions.
President of the Islamic Republic of Iran welcomed development of relations between Tehran and Doha and stressed that there is no obstacle on the way of development of relations with the friend and brother country of Qatar and that Tehran will still stand by Doha.
Rouhani expressed hope that Tehran and Doha can take the best advantage of the opportunities for fostering business and economic relations.
Stressing that Tehran's policy is to interact and negotiate with the countries of the region to end the disputes to establish stability and security in the entire region, Iranian president added: "We consider adventurous policies of some countries in the region incorrect and believe that the continuation of this process will undoubtedly deteriorates the situation, including in Palestine, Syria and Yemen".
"Today, the people of Palestine, especially the residents of Gaza, are under a lot of pressure and are attacked by the usurper Zionist Regime every day, and Muslims collectively supporting them can help alleviate their pains," continued Rouhani.
Emir of Qatar, in turn, praise the Iranian government and nation's stances on the issue of the siege of Qatar and said: "We believe that all disputes in the region can only be possible through dialogue and no country can impose its views on other countries".
Qatar supports the Palestinian nation, he said, adding: "We support the Palestinian people's resistance and will continue this policy".
Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt and Bahrain cut diplomatic and trade links with Qatar last June, accusing Doha of “supporting terrorism”, while Qatar denies the accusations.
