Doha, Qatar: The Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs HE Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani has discussed recent military tensions in the region during a meeting with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany HE Johann Wadephul.

The talks took place at the Amiri Diwan on Wednesday and focused on the recent military escalation in the region and its serious repercussions for regional and international security.

HE Sheikh Mohammed reiterated Qatar's condemnation of the Iranian attacks on its territory, stressing that such actions are unacceptable under any justification.

He noted that Qatar has consistently sought to distance itself from regional conflicts and has worked to streamline dialogue between Iran and the international community.

His Excellency also warned against the irresponsible targeting of vital infrastructure, particularly facilities linked to water, food and energy supplies, saying such actions could expose populations across the region to serious risks.

He stressed the need for an immediate cessation to any escalation and called for a return to dialogue, urging all sides to prioritise reason and diplomacy in order to contain the crisis and safeguard regional stability.

For his part, HE Wadephul expressed Germany's condemnation of the Iranian attack on Qatari territory, describing it as a blatant violation of Qatar's sovereignty, its airspace and international law, including the United Nations Charter.
