Saudi Arabia's Arab Gulf Affairs Minister Thamer al-Sabhan said the Saudi Arabia’s policy is based on “decisiveness and strong will,” adding that the Saudi kingdom will not hesitate to take stances and clearly announce them.
“Those who scheme in secret and sell their people for mercenaries bear the consequences,” Sabhan said on Twitter.
Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain cut their ties with Qatar on Monday, accusing it of supporting terrorism and opening up the worst rift in years among some of the most powerful states in the Arab world.
The measures are the latest development in a widening rift between Doha and its Gulf neighbors.
