Qatar defends foreign policy in face of Gulf anger
 

http://l2.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/Xc...603c1b219d.jpgQatar defended its independent foreign policy Monday after Saudi Arabia and two other Gulf countries recalled their envoys from Doha accusing it of meddling in their internal affairs. Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain recalled their ambassadors last week in a move widely seen as signalling their anger at Qatar's support for the Muslim Brotherhood of deposed Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi. Saudi Arabia and other conservative Gulf countries welcomed the military's overthrow of Morsi last July and pledged billions of dollars in aid while Qatar, which had strongly supported him, has seen its influence in Cairo evaporate.
