<p>We regularly raise a range of issues with the Government of Qatar at all levels.
The UK remains very concerned by the ongoing tensions in the Gulf. The Prime Minister,
Foreign Secretary and other ministers are engaging with our Gulf friends to encourage
de-escalation and to get firmly behind Kuwait’s mediation efforts to resolve the dispute.
The Foreign Secretary spoke most recently to the Qatari Foreign Minister on these
issues on 23rd November. Qatar is a partner of the UK in the fight against terrorism,
and the Government has welcomed the Emir of Qatar’s commitment to tackle terrorism
in all its manifestations, including terrorist financing, and his pledge to resolve
remaining differences with Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt and Bahrain through dialogue,
negotiation and Kuwaiti mediation.</p>
