Mideast nation (5)

I believe the answer is:

qatar

'mideast nation' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for qatar that I've seen before include "Arab country" , "Sheikdom on the Persian Gulf" , "found by the Persian Gulf" , "Sporting venue" , "Arab peninsula" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
