Qatar's Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, said Thursday that his nation is ready to partner with Syria's new administration to rebuild and develop the country. Speaking alongside Syria's interim leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, in a joint press conference, Al Thani emphasized the "urgent need" to lift sanctions on Syria to ensure the continuation of public services and kick-start economic recovery.
He further noted that the Emir of Qatar plans to visit Syria in the near future and announced "significant momentum" in upcoming Qatari-Syrian projects. Al Thani also condemned Israel's recent moves in the demilitarized zone, calling for an immediate withdrawal. In his remarks, al-Sharaa underscored that Israel's advances in the buffer area under the pretext of countering Iranian militias were no longer justified "after the liberation of Damascus." He reiterated Syria's readiness to welcome international peacekeeping forces and maintain respect for the 1974 disengagement accord. "We've informed global stakeholders of our willingness to receive UN troops and guarantee their safety," al-Sharaa said, adding that Qatar will play a "pivotal role" in opposing Israel's incursion and supporting Syria's nascent rebuilding efforts.
