The State of Qatar welcomed the adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2817, which condemns the Iranian attacks on several countries in the region, and affirms respect for the sovereignty of these states, the integrity of their territories, and rejects targeting civilians and vital infrastructure.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in a statement Wednesday, emphasized the necessity of an immediate halt to Iranian attacks to spare the region the risks of escalation and to enhance international peace and security.
The Ministry affirmed that the adoption of the resolution reflects the broad international rejection of Iranian aggressions that violate the sovereignty of these countries and contravene international law and the United Nations Charter.
The Ministry renewed Qatar's call for an immediate cessation of any escalation, a return to the negotiating table, prioritizing reason and wisdom, and efforts to contain the crisis in a manner that preserves regional security, protects the interests of its peoples, and prevents a slide toward wider confrontations.
