Qatar set to adopt more consensual foreign policy - FT.com

Qatar set to adopt more consensual foreign policy - FT.com:

"Qatar is set to adopt a more consensual approach in its foreign policy under its new emir after the gas-rich Gulf nation rattled some of its neighbours with controversial support for Mohamed Morsi, the ousted former Islamist president of Egypt, and its backing of rebels in Syria.
As part of a global quest for recognition, Qatar has spent as much as $3bn over the past two years supporting the rebellion in Syria and has been the biggest donor to the political opposition. But its support for Islamist groups in the Arab world, including Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood, has put it at odds with its neighbours."
