"Qatar is a small country that lacks the necessary capabilities to confront other states," she added.
On Thursday, Qatar placed 11 Qataris, two Saudis, four Egyptians and two Jordanians on a terror list.

UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Gargash wrote on his Twitter account that 10 of the individuals on the list were already included in three of the terror lists issued by the quartet. He said the list has proven that Doha supports terrorism.
"Apart from its obstinacy, Qatar is confirming the evidence against it and that its support for extremism and terrorism is at the heart of its crisis," the Emirati minister wrote.
