ALBAWABA-Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani of Qatar and Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune held official talks at Qatar's Emir Diwan, joined by senior ministers from both nations.
During the discussions, Emir Tamim expressed a strong desire for further development across various domains to fulfill the shared aspirations of both countries, while President Tebboune hoped that the meetings would enhance cooperation and foster fraternal relations between Qatar and Algeria. They focused on bolstering bilateral relations, particularly in areas such as the economy, trade, industry, energy, and technology, and also addressed significant regional and international matters.
Following the official talks, the leaders engaged in a bilateral meeting, exchanging views on mutual interests, with a notable emphasis on regional developments.
