Qatar does not advocate 'forgive and forget' for Russia, foreign minister says after colleague's controversial remarks
Qatari Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani on Tuesday appeared to correct a controversial statement his fellow minister made over the weekend concerning Russia's war in Ukraine.
Saad Sherida al-Kaabi, Qatar's energy minister and head of the state gas company, said he was sure Russian gas would eventually flow back to Europe, as the Continent would "forgive and forget" Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine.
"We're all blessed to have to be able to forget and to forgive. And I think things get mended with time … they learn from that situation and probably have a much bigger diversity [of energy intake]," al-Kaabi said on Saturday, during an energy forum in Abu Dhabi.
