HH the Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani's interview with Charlie Rose was aired in the a.m. last night, with many across Qatar and the world tuning in to see his first interview since the blockade of Qatar began on June 5th.

The interview has been highly anticipated in Qatar since HH the Emir was spotted at Katara a few weeks ago with Charlie Rose, a well-known American TV host and interviewer on CBS.
