Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani said that supporting the Palestinians and their steadfastness is at the top of Qatar's foreign policy priorities. The Prime Minister confirmed – during an exclusive interview with Qatar TV – that Blah is in intensive communication with Jordan, Egypt and the United States to deter the Israelis from their violations at Al-Aqsa Mosque.

He also hoped that there would be a political solution in Syria as soon as possible, stressing that this matter is in the hands of the Syrians themselves.
