Doha, Qatar (CNN) Qatar is open to mediation to resolve the crisis that has seen a group of nearby countries move to isolate the emirate over claims it supports Islamist extremist groups, its foreign minister says. "We are willing to sit and talk," Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani said Tuesday in an interview with CNN's Becky Anderson. But a key architect of the blockade on Qatar told CNN's John Defterios on Tuesday that Gulf countries are "fed up with this sort of duplicity" from Qatar. Libya's eastern-based government, which is not internationally recognized and has no diplomatic representation in Doha, also cut ties with Qatar. Passengers of cancelled flights wait on Tuesday, June 6, in Hamad International Airport in Doha, Qatar.
