Iran Press/ Middle East: Qatar's International Media Office said in a statement that “work is underway” to reopen embassies “as soon as possible.”
The UAE said in a statement that "the activation of diplomatic ties, which will include the reopening of embassies, is under process between both countries.”
Neither statement gave an immediate date for the reopening. Reuters first reported the effort.
The UAE, as well as Bahrain, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, launched a boycott of Qatar in 2017 and blocked the country's airline from its airspace, and also imposed other restrictions. The four nations were angered over Qatar's ties to Islamists and Iran, as well as other allegations during President Donald Trump's administration. The move ignited the biggest diplomatic crisis among the Persian Gulf Arab states since Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990.
