BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

    Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi meeting with Qatari PM and FM Mohammad bin Abdulrahman Al Thani

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi received Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammad bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, who is on a visit to Iran.
 
During the meeting, Raisi stressed the importance of regional cooperation and said that Iran’s priority in its foreign policy lies in developing relations and cooperation with its neighboring countries.
 
Raisi also said that Western powers do not respect the identity and dignity of the region’s nations and governments, and act as if they own the world, adding that the Iranian people have always insisted on their principled position, regardless of the US’ intentions, which is why the US itself has admitted that the maximum pressure campaign has failed.
 
Qatar’s PM extended an official invitation to Raisi, on the part of the Emir of Qatar, to take part in the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) and said that “Qatar is determined to make the utmost efforts to increase relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran in various political and economic fields, and the Emir of Qatar is personally following up on the development of relations between the two countries. "
 
Al Thani added, "Qatar also agrees with Iran that the presence of foreign forces in the region has a negative impact, and we believe that the countries of the region should take the path of peace and progress by adopting regional cooperation."

Qatar emir to visit Biden for talks on natural gas supplies to Europe

The emir of Qatar will meet US President Joe Biden in the White House on Monday to discuss Afghanistan, in addition to plans and efforts to provide natural gas to Europe in case of a Russian invasion in Ukraine, according to Axios. 

Europe is 40% reliant on Russian natural gas, and this undermines Biden's attempts to stir up sanctions that are made to coerce Russia if tensions in Ukraine lead to conflict. The sanctions, apparently, will be imposed from both sides of the Atlantic.

The White House is aiming to secure Qatar's help in assuring European allies that they can enforce hawkish sanctions on Russia with minimal damage regarding the energy crisis.
