Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir was asked about the latest developments in the Qatar crisis and the lack of commitment of Doha to implement the demands of countries calling for the fight against terrorism, Jubeir said the matter is up to Qatar.

This came during his participation on Tuesday in a panel discussion organized by the British Royal Institute for International Affairs (Chatham House) on "the future turbulence in the world."

“We reject terrorism and extremism and harboring the wanted. We refuse to publish discourses of incitement and hatred and interfere in the affairs of other countries. We do not accept that suicide bombings are justified in the media by extremist religious figures hosted by Qatar,” he said.

He added, "boycotting Qatar resulted in the signing of a memorandum of understanding with the United States of America to combat the financing of terrorism, and the Qatari authorities allowed officials of the US Treasury Department to be in Qatari banks, in addition to Qatar's amendments to the regulations on combating terrorism, pointing out that these steps were rejected by the Qatari authorities before the boycott.
