- Story Text:French President Emmanuel Macron welcomed Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan at the Elysee presidential palace on Wednesday (June 21).
His visit comes as the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Egypt cut diplomatic and transport ties with Qatar, accusing it of fomenting regional unrest, supporting terrorism and getting too close to Iran, all of which Doha denies.
The United Arab Emirates has said the sanctions could last for years unless Doha accepted demands that the Arab powers plan to reveal in coming days. - Copyright Holder: POOL (CAN SELL)
