Doha denies differences with Riyadh over Syria

DOHA: Qatar dismissed reports of rivalry with Saudi Arabia over efforts to end Syria’s war, saying the two countries had “the highest level of coordination.”
The Qatar News Agency said Foreign Minister Khaled Al-Attiyah, speaking at a public forum in Brussels on Saturday, “denied the rumors” about a dispute between Riyadh and Doha over Syria.
“We have the highest level of coordination with the Friends of Syria and in particular with Saudi Arabia,” QNA cited Al-Attiyah as saying.
Admirers of Qatari policy in Syria say Saudi Arabia tends to support the same armed groups as Qatar.
