President of Egypt Abdel Fatah al-Sisi and His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain have said the decision to sever diplomatic ties came after the failure of all attempts to make Doha stop aiding and abetting the terrorist organisations.
They decried Qatar’s persistent interference in the internal affairs of Egypt, Bahrain and other Arab countries, in a manner that jeopardises their security and stability, endangers pan-Arab security and unity.
The remarks came during the talks held between the two leaders in Cairo on Thursday.
Egyptian Presidency Official Spokesman, Ambassador Alaa Youssef, said the issues pertaining to the distinguished relations between the two countries were tackled during the meeting.
The two parties also discussed several regional and international issues of mutual concern, and agreed on methods of addressing them. They called for stronger inter-Arab relations based on mutual respect, and non-interference in internal affairs of other countries.
They also called for collective international action to reach settlements to political crises unfolding in some countries in the region, in a way that preserves territorial integrity and stability of those countries.
