"Why did they name Qatar solely responsible for regional terrorism?" Expert-Exclusive

Interviews 15:59 05.06.2017
On June 5th, it became clear that five Arab countries - Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen and the United Arab Emirates - broke off diplomatic relations with Qatar. The authorities of these countries claim that Qatar supports terrorist groups. Bahrain, declares that the country has stopped diplomatic relations with Qatar because of interference in the internal affairs of Bahrain and the threat to the security and stability in the country from Qatar.
 
During the last years, the disagreements among the Arab countries have become a usual thing, however later the situation has relatively improved. So what’s next?
 
The candidate of historical sciences, the State Councilor of the Russian Federation Modest Kolerov, answered the questions of Eurasia Diary.
 
Eurasia Diary: Today, five Arab countries decided to break off diplomatic relations with Qatar. Countries are convinced that Doha supports terrorists. Do you think it is worth waiting for any serious consequences from such a boycott?
 
Modest Kolerov: As a person far from the Arab world, I think this is a much unexpected move. It is also revolutionary because it was proclaimed right after Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia, which is the sign that the Arab world is on the eve of a major alteration, if not a catastrophe. Apparently, the Arab neighbors did not learn anything new about Qatar, and even worked closely with him during the cooperation in Libya. The reason why they decided to designate Qatar as the only responsible state for regional terrorism remains unknown.
 
Eurasia Diary: How likely might the decision of the five countries impact the rest of the world? For example, the CIS countries ..?
 
Modest Kolerov: This is a serious call for Baku, which has just declared itself to be the second front against Iran after Saudi Arabia. Troubles inside the first Saudi front can leave Baku alone with Iran.
 
Eurasia Diary: The officials in Doha reject accusations of supporting terrorism and claims that a smear campaign has been launched against them. Does this sound plausible?
 
Modest Kolerov: I believe in accusations, just like everyone who watched Qatar in recent years and I do not believe in their sincerity. The loudness of the event may remain as an act of blackmail, but no one now will believe that Saudi Arabia is doing well. This is a management crisis, followed by a catastrophe.
