Qatar vowed on Thursday to ride out the isolation
imposed on it by fellow Arab states over its
alleged support for terrorism.
It said it would "not surrender" its sovereignty
over foreign policy to resolve the region's
biggest diplomatic crisis in years.
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and
Egypt cut diplomatic ties with Doha early
this week, with several other nations following
suit.
Would-be mediators including U.S. President
Trump and Kuwait's ruling emir have struggled
to ease a crisis that Qataris say has led
to a blockade of their nation.
Doha's foreign minister said he favored diplomacy
to resolve the escalating crisis and that
there was no military solution.
