Qatar–United Arab Emirates relations are the relations between Qatar and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The UAE has an embassy in Doha while Qatar maintains an embassy in Abu Dhabi and a consulate in Dubai. Both countries share a naval border and are part of the Arabic-speaking Persian Gulf region. They are both members of the GCC.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Profile: Gulf Co-operation Council )〕 ==Diplomatic relations== In 1995, after Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani deposed his father to become emir of Qatar, UAE granted asylum to the deposed Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani in a quarters in Abu Dhabi. Qatar accused UAE, along with Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, of plotting against the new emir, to which the accused countries denied all charges. Several hundred arrests were made in relation to the incident throughout the next two years, and in February 1996, the Qatar Amiri Guard was mobilized. The UAE, along with Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, withdrew their ambassador from Qatar in March 2014 due to alleged failiure by Qatar to abide by an agreement not to interfere in the politics of these countries. The main reason for the dispute was UAE's support for the political regime in Egypt led by Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and Egypt’s military elite which contrasted Qatar's support for the Muslim Brotherhood. The UAE considers the Muslim Brotherhood issue to be related to its own internal security, especially after the State Security Court in Abu Dhabi handed down harsh penalties to suspected members of a Muslim Brotherhood cell for attempting to overthrow the state.〔 In April 2014, Dubai Police Force chief Dhahi Khalfan stated that “Qatar should not be ‘a safe haven’ to the so-called ‘Muslim’ Brotherhood”, and further asserted that the UAE should 'reclaim' Qatar. The government of Qatar continued to back the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, and Qatar's emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani denounced el-Sisi's election as president in June 2014 as a ‘military coup’.〔 The ambassadors returned to their posts in June. In September 2014, it was reported that the Emirati government invested $3 mn into a lobbying campaign against Qatar, primarily as a response to Qatar's support for the Muslim Brotherhood. The campaign was aimed at influencing American journalists to publish critical articles of Qatar's alleged funding of Islamist groups. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Qatar–United Arab Emirates relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
