Lisbon: The Gulf Muslim country, which earns a lot of money from oil and gas, is engaged in a project to implement the Islamic Caliphate. For this, it is spending money with an open hand. This claim was made by former Portuguese ambassador to Qatar and politician António Tânger Corrêa. He said Qatar is using billions of dollars from gas exports to help it achieve its dream of re-establishing the caliphate.
António Tânger Corrêa said that we should not hold the Football World Cup and other such big events in Qatar. These events provide Qatar with an international platform from which to elevate its agenda.
“When they decided to stop the bullfight in Barcelona, Qatar wanted to buy the bullfight ground and build the largest mosque in Europe in its place”, he claims.
The Portuguese politician claimed that Qatar dreams of establishing the caliphate once again.
“I know what I’m saying. I have been in Qatar. I have served there as an ambassador”.
“He claimed that Qatar has a very bad system. There is a lot of strictness on the labourers working there. Passports and other things are taken from them. They are forced to live in poor conditions. They act like modern slaves,” said Correa.
In 2014, media reports claimed that the emir of Qatar had offered $ 2.2 billion (about Rs 187.24 billion) to buy the bullfight ring The Plaza de Toros Monumental de Barcelona, in Barcelona, Spain.
Qatar’s plan was to convert one of Barcelona’s largest stadiums into the largest mosque in Europe. Media reports said that it would be the third largest mosque in the world.
