Description

Qatar has been under pressure from fellow Arab Gulf states over its alleged support for Egypt's opposition Muslim Brotherhood, but according to Bahrain's foreign minister, it has now agreed to back the Egyptian government and curb the critical output of Al Jazeera - the TV network that once revolutionised the region's media with its fiercely independent voice. Simeon Kerr spoke to Sheikh Khalid Al Khalifa about the deal. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
