Qatar Airways said it would require Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain and Egypt to pay at least $ 5 billion for the closure of its airspace.
Qatar Airways' statement
stated:
"It will sue the arbitral tribunals for the actions of blockade countries to remove Qatar Airways from markets and ban airlines in its airspace."
The statement said the
claim could be $ 5 billion.
Qatar Airways has been
banned from flying in the airspace of those four countries since June 2017,
when it cut off relations with Qatar over allegations of Doha supporting
terrorism a charge that Doha denied and claimed that this group of countries
is violating national sovereignty.
The airline said the above
measures are clearly aimed at the airline, with the aim of closing all its
operations in the four countries mentioned above, destroying the value of
investment and causing damage to its activities. Global.
The company is seeking to
file a claim with four investment arbitration courts under three agreements,
including the Arab Investment Agreement. Currently, 4 countries have not
commented on this move.
