#Qatar #QatarDiplomacy #Israel Qatar's PM has concluded his speech at Qatar's Economic Forum. Here is what he said regarding the ceasefire talks which Qatar is mediating. "When there are two parties who want to agree on something, you need to agree on the baseline first of all. I believe that what we are seeing is a fundamental difference between the two. "There is one party who wants to end the war and then talk about the hostages. There is another party who wants the hostages and wants to continue the war, and as long as there is no commonality between those two things, it won't get us to a result," he said.

A record number of people around the world were internally displaced last year.
