Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan and U.S. President Donald Trump will discuss the dispute between Qatar and a number of countries in the Middle East and Africa in coming days, Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said on Tuesday.
Erdogan has vowed to keep supporting Qatar and said the dispute should be resolved before the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
On May 5, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates cut diplomatic ties with Qatar citing Doha's alleged support of terrorism. Several other countries, including Chad and Senegal, recalled their ambassadors from Doha, while Jordan and Djibouti said they would lower the level of diplomatic contacts with Qatar. Meanwhile, Qatar has denied the accusations and said that no retaliatory measures would be taken.
