Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei , told the Emir of Qatar he should release Iranian oil revenues held in Doha in defiance of any US pressure not to do so.
Qatar is “a friendly and brotherly country, although there are still ambiguous and unresolved issues,” Khamenei said in a meeting on Wednesday with Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani , who is visiting Tehran, according to the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency.
