Germany has called for diplomatic efforts to resolve a growing crisis over Qatar, which is accused by four Arab neighbours of funding terrorism.

Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt and Bahrain cut travel and diplomatic ties with Qatar on Monday.

Speaking after hosting his Qatari counterpart today, German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel called for the “sea and air blockades” to be lifted.

Ever since the dispute between Qatar and its neighbours erupted, Germany has pushed for a diplomatic solution.

Mr. Gabriel met Saudi Foreign Minister two days ago, and said all parties were seeking “to avoid further escalation”.
