Al Hashimy affirmed that the security and stability of Qatar is an integral part of the security and stability of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states. Any attack on a Gulf state constitutes an attack on the collective Gulf security system, she emphasised

The continuation of the aggressive and provocative approach undermines the chances of achieving stability, pushes the region towards extremely dangerous paths, and establishes a reality that cannot be tolerated or accepted, Al Hashimy added.
