Qatar on Thursday rejected and condemned the statement made by the so-called Colonel Ahmad al Mismari, spokesman for Haftar's forces, which said Qatar intervened in the internal affairs and financed"terrorism" in Libya.
Ambassador HE Ahmed bin Saeed al Rumaihi, Director of the Information Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said the timing and context of the statement as well as the identity of the parties that instructed him to come out with these statements do not need any elaboration, stressing that the rogue and illegally funded and armed Haftar's militia, which is known for its crimes against civilians, should be the last to give testimonies about the financing of terrorism.
Rumaihi said Mismari's statement is baseless, false and misleadingm and contradict the facts that everyone knows.
"All the works done by Qatar to help the brotherly Libyan people since the beginning of its glorious revolution in 2011 were clearly declared within the framework of the international system and in accordance with the resolutions of international legitimacy with the group of countries participating in the joint leadership with NATO. So, these irresponsible statements must be avoided because they are aimed to offend and disturb the relations between peoples and brotherly countries," Rumaihi said.
He said Qatar's policy is based on clear and consistent principles of mutual respect between states and non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.
