Prime Minister Al-Thani outlined Doha’s role in current negotiations over the war in Gaza and Qatar’s strategic vision for de-escalating tensions and promoting regional security and prosperity in the Middle East. As a major non-NATO ally of the United States, Qatar plays a pivotal role in seeking and proposing solutions to the current conflict and other regional and global issues of crucial importance to the United States. Al-Thani will also discuss US-Qatar relations, Doha’s role in ensuring regional security, and Qatar’s foreign-policy vision.
