Tillerson says break with Qatar by Saudi Arabia, others won't affect counter-terrorism
SYDNEY -- US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said he does not expect a decision by Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain to sever ties with Qatar on Monday to have a significant effect on the fight against Islamic State.
"I do not expect that this will have any significant impact, if any impact at all, on the unified—the unified—fight against terrorism in the region or globally," Tillerson told reporters in Sydney after meetings between Australian and US foreign and defence ministers.
