Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir condemned on Sunday Iran for its meddling in the Arab region. He said at the conclusion of the 29th Arab League summit in Dhahran: “Iran is seeking to create sectarian strife in the region.” He accused it of supplying terrorist militias with ballistic missiles and it “must be held accountable.” Moreover, he said that Tehran is aspiring to take control of the Islamic world, which is “unacceptable.” Asked why the dispute with Qatar was not addressed at the Arab summit, Jubeir said: “This is a very small issue.” Doha knows that the solution to the dispute “lies in its own hands. It should stop living in denial,” stressed the Saudi minister. He reiterated that Qatar was still supporting extremists and its actions are “rejected.”
