Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet with Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani in Moscow on Thursday, with discussions expected to center on the ongoing situation in Ukraine and broader Middle Eastern regional affairs, the Kremlin announced on Wednesday.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed that the two leaders will exchange views on Ukraine, a key topic given Qatar’s recent efforts to mediate between Russia and Ukraine. "There will definitely be an exchange of views between Putin and the Emir of Qatar on Ukrainian affairs," Peskov told reporters. He added that the talks would also cover regional issues, noting the Middle East’s ongoing conflicts and Qatar’s significant role in attempting to resolve various situations.
Peskov highlighted Qatar’s efforts to facilitate dialogue, including its role in helping reunite children separated from their parents during the war between Russia and Ukraine. The small Gulf nation has positioned itself as a neutral party, actively engaging in diplomatic efforts to mediate between the warring sides.
The Emir of Qatar is expected to arrive in Moscow on Wednesday for the meeting with President Putin, which comes amid broader discussions about trade and economic relations. Peskov expressed appreciation for the existing level of trade and economic cooperation between Russia and Qatar, emphasizing the importance of their confidential dialogues on sensitive issues.
The talks come at a time when geopolitical tensions continue to shape the global landscape, with Qatar playing an increasingly prominent role in regional diplomacy, particularly in the context of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the complex dynamics of the Middle East.
