President Trump again singled out Qatar as a financer of extremists at a White House press conference with the president of Romania. “I decided along with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, our great generals and military people, the time had come to call on Qatar to end its funding. They said they would take a hard line on funding...” and “...extremism, and all reference was pointing to Qatar. “Qatar’s funding and ideological sponsorship are enabling the very extremists that American, UAE and other forces are fighting on the battlefield. We are committed to it.”While much of the administration’s rhetoric has focused on Qatar, Tillerson also called on Qatar’s neighbors to end their blockade.
