Qatar has been isolated by its Gulf neighbors with air, sea and land links severed.

One Qatari Businessman even plans to fly in 4,000 dairy cows to help supply milk.

A Saudi-led alliance claims Qatar is funding terrorism

and wants it to distance itself from Iran.

They've been on opposite sides of conflicts from Syria to Yemen.

The Qataris deny the terrorism charge and accuse Saudis of seeking to dominate the region

What is Qatar's standing in the Middle East?

Qatar has tried to become a player in regional politics, which has upset its neighbors.

Unlike most Middle Eastern governments, it broadly supported the Arab Spring uprisings.

In addition, Qatar maintains cordial relations with Iran as its wealth depends on a shared gas field.

It's complicated. President Trump has backed the Saudis.

But there are 10,000 U.S. troops stationed at a crucial Qatar military base, used to fight Islamic State.

While Saudis are emboldened by closer U.S. ties

There's a risk alienating Qatar could push it towards a closer relationship with Iran.
