Qatar: Diplomatic rift in Gulf squeezes business, putting rights of migrant workers at risk

On 5 June 2017, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt severed diplomatic ties with Qatar and subsequently cut off all land, air, and sea traffic over the country's alleged support for terrorist groups. The economic blockade has raised concerns over the import of foods and other goods, as well as the delivery of construction materials and equipment for the vast infrastructure portfolios in the country, including projects for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. This page tracks the business and human rights implications of the rift in Qatar, focusing specifically on the impact on migrant worker communities.
