The UAE and Qatar are continuing talks to follow up on the AlUla declaration, state media agencies reported on Thursday.
The AlUla Declaration ended the Gulf dispute with Qatar and restored ties with Doha. The UAE, along with Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Egypt, had severed diplomatic, trade and transport ties with Qatar in June 2017, accusing it of supporting terrorism – a charge Doha denies.
Two official delegations representing the UAE and Qatar met in Qatar’s capital city, Doha, on Thursday.
