US National Security Advisor And Qatari PM Discuss Afghanistan

Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, and United States National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan discussed the developments in Afghanistan and the need to arrange humanitarian aid for the Afghan people.

No further details of this telephone conversation have been revealed by the two sides.

However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Qatar in a statement on Monday said that the two sides also discussed bilateral cooperation and strategic partnership between the two countries and international and regional issues, including the crisis in Ukraine and Lebanon.

In recent years, Qatar has played an important role in the developments in Afghanistan, and the United States has repeatedly praised Doha for its support in the process of evacuation of Afghans at risk.

The US peace agreement with the Taliban was also signed in Doha, Qatar in 2020, and this country is currently hosting a large number of Afghans who were transferred from Afghanistan during the evacuation operation.
