Doha: Deputy Speaker of the Shura Council H E Dr. Hamda bint Hassan Al Sulaiti has stressed the role of parliamentary diplomacy in resolving conflicts and promoting global security and stability.

Speaking at an extraordinary meeting of the Executive Committee of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), which was held virtually yesterday, Dr. Al Sulaiti said parliamentarians, as representatives of their people, play a key role in advancing dialogue and peaceful solutions. Al Sulaiti is Vice-President of the Executive Committee representing the Arab Geopolitical Group.  

In her address, she referred to the IPU’s statement condemning the Iranian attacks against Qatar and other countries in the region since February 28 and called for concrete actions beyond statements of condemnation. 

She also expressed her strong condemnation of Iran’s continued military attacks as a “flagrant violation” of national sovereignty.
