Doha, May 23 /Xinhuanet/ — Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani on Saturday discussed the latest events in the region with U.S. President Donald Trump. This is stated in a statement by the administrative office of the Emir of Qatar “Amiri Diwan”.

During the telephone conversation, the main attention was paid to supporting diplomatic efforts, led by Pakistan, with the aim of preventing further escalation of tension in the region and preserving international peace and security, it is said in the statement.

The parties emphasized the importance of maintaining dialogue channels to resolve current issues, ensure security at sea and on strategically important waterways, as well as for the uninterrupted movement of global energy supplies and supply chains.

As noted in the statement, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani once again confirmed Qatar’s consistent position in supporting peaceful solutions and diplomatic initiatives aimed at containing the crisis and strengthening stability in the region.

The telephone conversation took place against the backdrop of escalating regional tensions around the Hormuz Strait and growing international concerns about the possible impact of the situation on global energy markets and maritime trade routes.

Qatar, a major exporter of liquefied natural gas, has repeatedly called for de-escalation and emphasized the importance of protecting freedom of navigation and regional stability.
