Home GCC UAE UAE has ‘no reason’ to be in conflict with Turkey, minister says The call for Turkey to reset relations follows the end of a three-year rift with Qatar by Bloomberg January 12, 2021 The United Arab Emirates has no reason to be in conflict with Turkey and wants Ankara to stop being the “primary backer” of the Muslim Brotherhood, a top official said. “We want to tell Turkey that we want normal relations with it that respect mutual sovereignty,” Anwar Gargash, minister of State for Foreign Affairs told Sky News Arabia. “We don’t have any problems with Turkey, like border issues or other such issues,” he said. The call for Turkey to “recalibrate its relations with Arabs” comes as the UAE and neighbour Saudi Arabia ended a three-year economic and political boycott of gas-rich Qatar, which pushed the Gulf nation closer to Ankara. Abu Dhabi and Ankara are on opposing sides of a proxy war in Libya and disagree on issues ranging from Syria and Iraq to the eastern Mediterranean. لقاء خاص مع وزير الدولة الإماراتي للشئون الخارجية أنور قرقاش #مع_جيزال https://t.co/SUJ8NB9jbk — سكاي نيوز عربية (@skynewsarabia) January 10, 2021 Tags border GCC Qatar Saudi Arabia Turkey UAE 0 Comments You might also like Investcorp announces $1bn GCC fund along with China’s CIC Saudi Arabia’s Fakeeh Care Group to sell 21.47% stake in Riyadh IPO UAE allocates Dhs2bn to support Emiratis affected by floods Saudi IPO: Miahona Company to list shares on Tadawul
