Qatar PM calls for Gulf security framework including Iran

Qatar’s prime minister has called for a Gulf security framework that includes Iran, arguing that the region cannot remain the same without arrangements to prevent countries from threatening one another.

The remarks, reported by Al Jazeera, set out a regional security principle rather than an agreed framework. The available material does not identify the prime minister, the venue or the timing of the comments.

Qatar’s stated position places Iran within a proposed Gulf-wide security structure. It does not provide details of how such a framework would operate or indicate whether Qatar has put forward a formal plan.

There is no indication in the source material that Iran has accepted the proposal, or that other Gulf states support it. No negotiations or agreement are reported.

The call therefore remains a Qatari appeal for a regional security arrangement, with its prospects and practical terms unresolved.
