Tehran – Acting as an agent provocateur in the crisis, Qatari Economy and Commerce Minister Sheikh Ahmed bin Jassim bin Mohamed al-Thani was representing Qatar's Emir Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani in attending Rouhani's swearing-in ceremony held on Saturday August 5, 2017. Such a move proves that the Qatari regime is still betting on Iran to affect regional policies and practices. Furthermore, the move is yet another attempt by Qatar to persist in its provocative policies against the interests of Arab region in favor of Iran. Qatari regime also seeks to garner the support of Iranian militias to face off its terror-combating Arab neighbors, which foiled many plots hatched and financed by Doha. Hassan Rouhani has been sworn in as Iran's 12th president in the Iranian capital in the presence of the country's high-ranking officials as well as leaders and senior politicians from around the world. Rouhani sworn in for 2nd term as Iran president. According to Iranian news agencies and websites, Sheikh Ahmed bin Jassem bin Mohammed Al Thani, Qatar's minister of economy and commerce, arrived in Iran early Saturday morning by a private jet to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Iranian President-elect Hassan Rouhani. Iranian websites posted photos of the Qatari economy minister's plane after arriving at Mehrabad International airport in Tehran, representing the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani.
