Saudi Arabia and its allies want to resolve their standoff with Qatar through diplomacy and don’t seek regime change, U.A.E. Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Gargash said at a press conference in Dubai.
“There is no intention for any sort of escalation,” Gargash said Saturday when asked about military intervention against Qatar if negotiations fail to end the impasse. “This is not about regime change, this is about behavioral change.”
