Many Qatari Twitter users have welcomed Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s visit to his second country Qatar.
Twitteratis have praised Erdogan’s stand with Qatar saying they will not forget the love and support of the Turkish people.
Qatar will not forget the Turkish support during the difficult situation and the next generation will appreciate that and anyone who understands the political game will respect Erdogan, they said.
Ali Fakhro said, “Great leaders don’t set out to be a leader … they set out to make a difference.”
Noorah Hakami tweeted: “Welcome Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to your second country.”
Another Twitterati said that “the blockade has taught us that we don’t need Arab brothers, we need brothers of Islam.”
Many other Qatari Twitter users said Qatar won’t forget Turkey’s support to Qatar specially in the current situation when neighbouring Gulf countries have closed their borders.
“When you see your real brother who stood by your side, when your blood brother turned against you,” tweeted Sara.
Turkey asked the siege countries to resolve the dispute though dialogue and respect Qatar’s sovereignty. The visit has special importance because it is the first visit of Erdogam after the blockade was imposed.
Emir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani in his recent speech thanked Turkey for its immediate response to meet the needs of the Qatari market.
“I would like to commend the important role that Turkey has played in the rapid adoption and direct implementation of our Strategic Cooperation Agreement that had been previously signed, and to thank it for its immediate response to meet the needs of the Qatari market,” he said.
He also thanked all those who opened their airspace and territorial waters when others closed theirs.
