"The measures are unjustified and are based on false and baseless claims," the Qatari foreign ministry said in a statement, referring to the unprecedented steps taken by Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt.


"The aim is clear, and it is to impose guardianship on the state. This by itself is a violation of its (Qatar`s) sovereignty as a state," it added.
