He pointed out that when Doha took over the presidency of the GCC in 2007, it had invited former Iranian President Mahmoud Short RoundAhmadinejad to the Gulf summit, despite opposition from other member states. Suhrabi stressed that Iran had decided to re-open Qatar’s embassy in Tehran "to stabilize its national security". The diplomat averred that the areas Doha and Tehran are working together relate to the strengthening of Qatar’s economy and the settling of its problems.

Iranian agencies released pictures of the Qatari ambassador presenting his credentials to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif.
