The source, in a statement to Qatar News Agency, added that Qatar hopes the United Nations and its organs, especially the Security Council, will be able to fulfill their duties and meet their goals in achieving justice and upholding international peace and security. 
Meanwhile, other Arab nations yesterday appealed to Saudi Arabia to reverse the decision to reject a seat on the Security Council.
Arab UN ambassadors made the appeal after an emergency meeting on Saudi Arabia’s surprise announcement on Friday. Saudi Arabia’s leaders should “maintain their membership in the Security Council and continue their brave role in defending our issues specifically at the rostrum of the Security Council,” said a statement released by Arab states at the UN.
The statement expressed “respect and understanding” for the Saudi position.
