Arab states issue list of demands to end Qatar crisis

Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries that have cut ties to Qatar have reportedly issued a list of demands to end a major Gulf crisis, insisting that Qatar shut down the Al Jazeera network, close a Turkish military base and scale down ties with Iran.

In the 13-point list, the countries also demand that Qatar sever all alleged ties with the Muslim Brotherhood and with other groups, including Hezbollah, al-Qaeda and ISIL.

Those countries have now given Qatar 10 days to comply with all of the demands, which also include paying an unspecified sum in compensation for what they claimed to be "loss of life and other financial losses caused by Qatar's policies". According to the list, Qatar must refuse to naturalise citizens from the four countries and "revoke Qatari citizenship for existing nationals where such citizenship violates those countries' laws".

Isn't shutting down Aljezeera too much a demand?

They should simply ask for the moon...

This is really getting serious. What are the possibilities that Qatar will comply with these conditions. I only hope for a peaceful end to all these.

Something is beginning to make me think that other Arab countries are jealous of Qatar achievements and liberal disposition. it's bad if they sponsor or have sympathy for terrorists but asking for the shutting down of Aljezeera is simply too much
