Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, Deputy Prime Minister of Afghanistan, met with Qatar's Prime Minister to discuss Afghanistan’s challenges. The Qatari leader reaffirmed Qatar's commitment to supporting the country's stability and humanitarian needs.
During his visit to Qatar, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs of the de facto Afghan authorities, held a meeting with Qatar's Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani.
According to a statement released by Qatar's foreign ministry, the two leaders engaged in discussions about the various challenges and difficulties currently confronting the Afghan people.
The statement further highlighted that the Qatari Prime Minister reaffirmed his nation's ongoing commitment to supporting Afghanistan. He emphasized Qatar's dedication to fostering "security, stability, prosperity, and a decent standard of living" within the country.
Qatar has played a central role in mediating peace talks between the United States and the Taliban, serving as a neutral host for negotiations since establishing the Taliban’s political office in Doha in 2013. Following the Taliban’s resurgence to power in August 2021, Qatar has maintained its engagement with the Taliban-led government, pushing for inclusive governance, respect for human rights and greater international cooperation.
In addition to its diplomatic efforts, Qatar has been a leading provider of humanitarian aid to Afghanistan, supplying food, medical resources, and other critical assistance to address the severe economic crisis and widespread poverty affecting the Afghan population. The country has also acted as a bridge between the Taliban and the global community, advocating for the recognition of the Taliban government while urging adherence to international standards, including counterterrorism measures and human rights protections.
Through its active diplomacy, commitment to humanitarian causes and focus on fostering stability and development, Qatar has established itself as a key player in Afghanistan. While its relationship with the Taliban has generated both praise and criticism, Qatar remains instrumental in shaping Afghanistan’s future and facilitating international engagement with the country.
