What's new

Qatar and UAE leaders run into each other for first time since Gulf crisis ended in the winter olympics

well okay, i tried my best to conclude the major points made in the clip (you will notice its all about al sisi take on it since the narrator is Egyptian)

- President Al Sisi said that he will use his visit to China as a platform to show the world his strong relations to nations that matter to his country (China, KSA, UAE, Qatar, Pakistan, Kazakhstan ..etc)
- he also mentioned that China is a great place for Arab leaders to meet far from the tensions of the middle east

-Both al sisi and Chinese president agree on a multitude of matters
1-USA harassing both countries about human rights violations while turning a blind eye to real human rights violations taking place in allied nations
2-India says that 20 high ranking Chinese officials, including the Chinese president meeting with al sisi is China flexing her relations with Egypt
3-china says that Egypt is key for Chinese success in the entire african continent

also, narrator mentions that

-KSA attending shows the USA that it is always seeking what is in its best interest and that KSA, by not speaking about the matter, shows USA that it is ignoring the fact that the US dropped sanctions on Iran a day before the meet in china and this is a clear sign to the US that KSA knows how to choose its allies and it will do so in China
-first time for MBZ and tamim meet after the blockade

now for the very last point above , the narrator pokes fun at all the haters out there that will literally dissect MBZ and say things like he was forced to meet tamim or that he was begging tamim to meet when all facts prove otherwise. He also said to notice that if tamim wore traditional qatari clothes and MBZ attended in a suit, the media will go into a frenzy about how tamim is loyal to his country and culture and anti Israel and how he is true to his roots and how MBZ is a traitor for wearing a suit :P

Crazy folks in media if the dress and customs become a subject of debat

I thought they hated each other?

Nothing is permanent in politics. Trump is no longer in the office (though chances are that he may return in 2024), and Qatari & Emirati businesses are losing out. Trade matters the most to these countries. E.g., the Dubai-Doha route operated by Qatar and Emirates airlines was one of the top profitable routes for both carriers, with an overpriced ticket + full seats every single day. Can you imagine the loss of that one flight? Now imagine hundreds of companies trading between them.
