No compromise in dispute with Qatar— Egypt


Egypt's Foreign Minister, Sameh Shoukry, speaking after meeting with the European Union diplomatic chief Federica Mogherini in Brussels, said Qatar must accept in full, the demands by Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

"It is not an issue of compromise. We cannot compromise with any form of terrorism, we cannot compromise or enter into any form of negotiations," he said.

Shoukry told a news conference. "It is only once the necessary measures are undertaken by Qatar, that goes towards truly accepting to be a partner in the fight against terrorism, that this crisis will be resolved," he said.

Egypt's top diplomat said Qatar was "harbouring elements associated to terrorist ideologies, to radical ideologies, that they have utilised their media outlets to promote and to justify and to glorify terrorist activity".
