qatar. on drops and adds to the democratic presidential ross, and from london emma thomas on the final days of the prime minister race. kevin: president trump is set to meet later in the day with the emir of qatar to judge the situation with iran and qatar offering to blame middleman between the u.s. and iran. it comes at a time when qatar as well as saudi arabia has also been -- david: we have a very close to the relationship the united states with saudi arabia. saudi arabia does not have a good relationship with qatar. how is the president playing off these relationships? noted therces have u.s. has taken a standoffish approach in terms of the inter-arab squabble that has emerged between qatar and saudi arabia. we should also note the at the administration, including jared kushner, have maintained close personal ties with the saudi's and last night the emir of qatar meeting with top business leaders in washington, d.c. along with president trump. the situation has been fascinating to watch

of course the other big thing that qatar does for the u.s. is host a big airbase with thousands of u.s. troops more a bigger arriving in recent weeks because of the tension. in the gulf at the same time the emir heads a country that has good cordell relations with iran so it gives a pretty pivotal role if you look at the countries in the middle east if the u.s. wants to take a diplomatic route with iran you have. potentially you have. maybe you have kuwait as countries that could play an intermediary role is as well of course as european countries. do we expect the emir to ask for perhaps some good favor return when it comes to the blockade being imposed on car. well i think that that is the thing from the cattery side they would like his support with regard to that blockade i think the administration's position i mentioned early on how it seemed that almost effectively greenlighted the blockade following that summit when president trump went to saudi arabia on his very 1st trip as president situation is now changed i think it's changed becau

one foriegn country that can defuse tensions between the us and iran — it's likely qatar.fered to mediate between the washington and tehran. keep in mind saudi arabia, the united arab emirates, bahrain and egypt have maintained a sea, air and land blockade around qatar since june 2017. precisely because of those ties with iran. nonetheless much of the emphasis today was on investment opportunities between the two countries. we're joined now by ilan goldenberg — the director of the middle east security program at the center for a new american security. i guess i'm curious to understand why qatar has offered to mediate between washington and tehran, what is in it for them. qatar generally, they take a different position to some other gulf states to take a harder line against iran. the country position has been to try to play the middle road on the issue and on the one hand they are concerned about this big neighbour right across the water that threatens them in some ways and is kind of scary over there and continues with the pursuit of destabilising behaviour and issues that
