Qatar and Saudi Arabia About who pays in Syria?
Qatari Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdul Rahman al-Thani said on Wednesday, April 25, 2018, that the Syrian crisis is a collective responsibility of the international community, in response to statements by his Saudi counterpart, Adel al-Jubair. "Syria has become the worst humanitarian disaster in the world," the Qatari minister said in a tweet via Twitter, reiterating his call for a political solution to the crisis. Al-Thani attached a picture of the participants at the Brussels conference to support the future of Syria and the region, in which he represents his country, in which he shows his Saudi counterpart.
The conference was launched on Tuesday, 24 April 2018, and concluded on Wednesday 25 April 2018, with the participation of representatives of 85 countries and international organizations. "According to US President Donald Trump's statement at a press conference with French President Emmanuel Macaron, Qatar must pay for the presence of US military forces in Syria and send its military forces there, (Syria)".
According to the minister, this must be done before Trump cancels his country's protection of Qatar, which is the presence of many bases on its territory, adding that if this happens, it can bring down the Qatari regime "in less than a week." Doha and Washington have strong military ties. Some 11,000 US military personnel, most of them from the Air Force, are stationed at the base of al-Jadid, 30 km southwest of the capital, the most important in the region. At a press conference with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macaron on Tuesday, April 24, 2018, Trump called on the Gulf states to deploy their forces in Syria and pay more money to expel the terrorists. "The Gulf states would not have been rich without the protection of the United States, and we can not continue to pay the high cost of our military presence in the region. We have paid more than $ 7 trillion, and we have not received any," he said.
"The very rich countries in the region will pay more money in Syria, we will not continue to pay, and I want our soldiers to return home," he said, calling on the Gulf states to deploy their forces in Syria. Al-Jubeir's remarks came a few days after he announced his country's readiness to send troops to Syria and said on Tuesday, April 17, 2018, that his country would send troops to Syria under the US-led coalition if a decision was made to expand it. "We are having a discussion with the United States about sending troops to Syria, and we have been doing this since the beginning of the Syrian crisis," al-Jubeir told a news conference in Riyadh with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterich. He said Saudi Arabia had already proposed the idea to former President Barack Obama.
The Wall Street Journal revealed that the Trump administration is trying to form an Arab force to replace the US military unit in Syria and help stabilize the north-eastern part of the country after the defeat of the Islamic State, . In early April 2018, Trump spoke of the need to accelerate the withdrawal of 2,000 US troops from Syria, a position that runs counter to the views of many senior advisers who fear that a rapid withdrawal from Syria would leave the land to Iran, Russia and their proxies, or Other terrorist groups.
