Hamas official: Governments of Turkey, Iran and Qatar may conclude a political and economic pact

The governments of Turkey, Iran, and Qatar may conclude a political and economic pact, Hamas spokesman Khaled al-Qaddumi told Tehran Times.

The region desperately needs a strong front to counter foreign interference, he said.

Turkey, Iran, Qatar, and anyone who wants to participate in such a front can form an alliance, Qaddumi said.

From an economic point of view, they successfully manage their trade and economy, but, unfortunately, we still have not reached a common view of the political situation in the region, he said.

Qaddumi said that Hamas and these three countries have a common enemy in the person of Israel. These countries also have common regional rivals – Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, which have strong ties with the United States and an increasingly warm relationship with Israel.
