Baghdad (AIN) –The Emir of Qatar State Sheikh, Hamad Bin Khalifa al-Thani, received the Vice-President, Tariq al-Hashimi, at his office in Doha on Monday.
The Qatari News Agency reported that "Al-Thani received Hashimi where they discussed bilateral relations between the two countries and the political updates in the Region."
Earlier, a statement by Hashimi’s office cited “In response to an official invitation he received earlier, Hashimi headed to the Qatari Capital Doha, where he will meet the Emir of Qatar State Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa al-Thani and the Qatari Premier Hamad Bin Jasim Bin Jabur Al-Thani.”
"The visit is expected to last for few days,” the statement added, noting that “Hashimi will visit other countries later."
The Premier Nouri al-Maliki has pointed out in a press conference on Sunday morning that “Hashimi should not be received as a Vice-President by the Arab countries because he is wanted for justice,” stressing that “Iraq is a member of the Arab League and receiving Hashimi will violate the diplomatic rules.” /End/
