Word from the Ambassador
It is my pleasure to assume the role of heading the Qatari diplomatic mission in Tunisia, given the strong bonds of love and cooperation between the leaderships and peoples of our two countries.
His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Emir of the State of Qatar, is committed to further strengthening these ties, a commitment that I also observed during my reception by His Excellency President Kais Saied at the Carthage Palace.
The relations between our two countries are experiencing positive developments at an encouraging pace, through official visits at all levels and the diverse frameworks of cooperation and joint coordination to enhance bilateral relations.
This benefits the aspirations of our peoples and has led to significant economic cooperation in all investment and trade sectors, as evidenced by the frequent signing of agreements to stimulate collaboration in both the public and private sectors, thereby benefiting our two brotherly countries.
Additionally, the two countries share a strategic vision for establishing stability and development at both regional and global levels. Their views align in defending Arab causes, with the Palestinian issue being central among them, as well as all just causes worldwide in accordance with international law and various treaties and conventions.
The development of Qatari-Tunisian relations under the wise leaderships of both countries benefits both sides, and Qatari-Tunisian cooperation has become a model for joint Arab action.
I welcome all our Tunisian brothers and sisters through the Website of the Qatari Embassy in Tunisia and wish for further development of the relations between our countries and continued progress and prosperity for Tunisia, its leadership, and its people.
