Qatar Falls in Quagmire –Facing Isolation and Ban in ME- No Overnight Solution Visible

 

Qatar is one of the problematic nations in Middle East because of the acceleration of tension over its unexpected support towards Muslim Brotherhood party.  Powerful nations like Saudi Arabia, Arab Emirates and Bahrain are not allowing Qatari nationals to stay in these nations permanently.  Qatar is facing the indefinite isolation from the nine nations in ME.  Find the reasons of taking such drastic steps to ban Qatar. Donald Trump has not supported this restrictionimposed on Qatar.  However, he is bold to stop insurgency.  His recent declaration of delivery $100 million worth arms/weapons to Riyadh is also a minus point to Qatar.

New  Crisis in Qatar- Controversy Starts

Qatar is not safe any longer due to growing cross border insurgency with formation of new terrorist organizations to rule the country.  OPEC  counties  are against the  participation of  Qatar for its daring attitude  to  guide  Brotherhood party to  revolt against  Riyadh.  It is not a good and cool ambience in which   ME countries   live.   ISIS terrorists have reinforced   its organization to attack innocent civilians mercilessly.  Their inhuman and uncivilized behavior is not unknown.  Still Qatar has no futuristic program to cut off the connection with the powerful terrorist organizations.   

This small country   has been accused of launching more destructive raids on people by supporting the Muslim Brotherhood party.  Right now, in Riyadh and Arab Emirates, the Qataris are pressurized to leave the nations. This forceful deportation is a threat to teach Qatar a lesson for its non-stop counter insurgency  in many countries located in ME. However,   many experienced  critics in international  political arena  have hinted that most probably  the  hidden  or tacit understanding between  Qatar and   Iran  has  insulted    Riyadh and other OPEC  nations. Iran has not stopped   nuclear experiments.   

This nation has had to stop oil exporting due to the ban. However, Russia and America have opened   new air vents for smooth discussion to evaluate the objectives  of opening the nuclear experiment lab in Tehran.    If the purpose of doing researches to get energy for spoon feeding the industry, it is excellent. The decision was taken in collaboration with other big brothers in Europe. Iran and Qatar have made the fruitful joint ventures for earning more profits by selling oil/gasoline products in the global market.  The large   underground   gas supply pipes run across the border of Qatar to connect it with Iran to enhance the smooth gas deployment.   If this rapport doesn’t sound pleasurable to soothe anger of Saudi Arab, the situation will be heated up slowly.   On the other hand, Qatar has announced that it will not be   broken even in the catch 22 situation. It has the  large  treasure   trove with  a pack of $300 billion  worth  financial  resource to  fuel up the  nation  for  few years  comfortably. Definitely, it is not difficult for Qatar to fight with crisis. However,   frankly speaking, Qatari citizens have to depend on Riyadh   to have   food and other commoditiesto live smartly.  Qatar government has to buy foods and medicines from Riyadh and other rich nations in Europe.  This sudden door closure on the face of Qatar must produce a bad effect to gear up the tension to a great extent.

 

US Interference Getting Brighter to Solve Crisis – More Findings

Initially, Saudi Arab Egypt, Bahrain and Yemen including UAE had had signed up unanimously to freezeQatar’s entryinto OPEC regions. In addition,   air routes connected with   Qatar will be deactivated   unless the settlement over this critical issue.  Later, Maldives and Mauritius decided to go against Qatar for the increase in the terrorism in the ME region.  So, slowly Qatar has to suffer the irrecoverable pain and brunt of ostracization from the other parts of ME. The strategic diplomacy seems to go beyond the expected limit due to the involvement of powerful nations to boost up the insurgency in the ME.  So, naturally, the condition of Qatar is going down to snowball into very pitiable and uncomfortable   situation to face. 

At the same time, Saudi Arab and its allies claim that Qatar has forgotten how to start and where to stop.  In recently published    press release or small cable, Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim Al Hamad Al Thani blamed Iran for building up new friendship with   America.Pentagon has had implemented a new arms deployment plan to energize Iran to be a good rival in OPEC region. So, it is not healthy for nations in ME.   Iran is an Islamic country with full   support to enable Tehran to start gathering weapons.  Now,   it is a real quagmire. 

On one hand ,  Saudi Arab criticizes  Qatar to  grow intimacy with Tehran, on other hand ,  Qatar’s  representatives  are exploding in criticisms  to lambast  Iran for new tie-up with Pentagon.   This puzzle work must be understood to do the meticulous evaluation depending on the extrapolated   facts.  The rift is deep and prominently palpable. Saudi Arabia charges that Tehran is becoming unbeaten in Lebanon, Syria and other nations in   ME.  Hezbollah in Lebanon has good connection with Iran.  Saudi Arab has had already discarded   this militancy outfit for gearing up racial profiling and insurgency in Riyadh.

Well, US President Donald J Trump , is now expecting a warm reception to join the discussion to solve the issues.  Certainly, he has not any overnight solution but he can generate innovative tips and barrage of suggestions to deal with the recent crisis in ME.  America is the broker but it is also a good cunning businessman to sell arms to both nations.    It has supplied arms to Iran and Saudi Arabia as well.   In case the conflict starts flourishing, America will try to gain advantage.   Meanwhile Qatar has contacted Donald Trump over phone to have his feedbacks regarding the sudden tumultuous situation inME. 

Mr.Al-Thanil, Qatari’s ambassador, has supported his views by claiming that   his nation   has no role to boost up any hardcore militancy outfit to fight against   Riyadh.    Qatar is a peaceful country and it is also resourceful in natural oil and gas.    Three major nations of the group of nine countries in ME must not betray   Qatar. They should clarify their stand to freeze the connection with Qatar.  It is hidden track to deactivate the presence of Qatar in the global arena. Donald Trump has stated that insurgency should be controlled.  

Conclusion  

Qatar and  its rivals must sit for finding the solution without spending their energy for energizing the ethnic clashes.  If war starts, allnations in ME will be sufferers. The telephonic discussion, regular meetings and  message sharing will continue till the problem troubleshooting.  To be frank controversial deal of Qatar to get back few top brass officials captured by terrorists can be a cause for closing routes to Qatar.  The ransom  money was paid by Mr.Al-Thani to request the militants’ outfits to release the convicts.  Though Qatar talked to Hamas to manage insurgency, Mr.Al-Thani never  promoted demand of Hamas to create tension.  Right now, Qatar needs more constructive support from neighboring nations to normalize the supply of food and drinkable water to let civilians to stand firm on ground.
