RIYADH: Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies said early Wednesday they had received Qatar's response to their list of demands for restoring relations, which Doha has described as "unrealistic". "Minister Adel al-Jubeir received from the Kuwaiti state minister Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah Al-Sabah the official Qatari response regarding the demands of the boycotting countries," the Saudi foreign ministry said on Twitter, adding that they met in Jeddah. "The four countries received the Qatari response through the state of Kuwait before the end of the extended period. And it will be responded to at the right time," the Saudi foreign ministry tweeted. Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, who handed the official response to Kuwait, said the list of demands "is unrealistic and is not actionable".
