At a joint press conference with Lebanese Prime Minister Dr Nawaf Salam, HE Sheikh Mohammed said their discussions addressed ways to strengthen the fraternal relations between the two nations and expand their partnership-particularly within vital sectors-alongside reviewing regional and international developments. HE the Prime Minister said that the directives of His Highness the Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani call for providing Lebanon with support using all available resources to help revitalize its economy, noting that the Lebanese people have long played a fundamental role in economic activity and have been a driver of the region's economy. He added that the talks addressed the importance of expanding co-operation in energy, investment, development, the economy, and electricity infrastructure for the mutual benefit of Qatar and Lebanon, as well as implementing joint projects that contribute to the region's security, stability, and prosperity. Joint projects Regarding the energy sector, HE the Prime Minister said the discussions covered a project Qatar and Lebanon have explored for years, expressing optimism that it is nearing the implementation phase. HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim al-Thani held talks in Beirut with Lebanese PM Dr Nawaf Salam on bilateral cooperation, economic ties and regional de-escalation. The meeting on Friday focused on ways to strengthen cooperation between Qatar and Lebanon, particularly in the energy, investment and economic sectors. The two sides also discussed opportunities for joint projects that could contribute to regional security, stability and prosperity. QNA He revealed that QatarEnergy has reached an agreement with TotalEnergies to jointly develop a solar power plant, describing the project as an initial step within a broader energy co-operation framework that both sides have agreed to develop, with the aim of delivering integrated solutions and a major investment project benefiting the Lebanese economy and the participating Qatari companies and entities. He added that HH the Amir attaches great importance to advancing joint projects, particularly in development, education, and health, while emphasising that Qatar's support for Lebanon extends across sectors that strengthen the country's capacity for recovery and revitalisation. HE Sheikh Mohammed affirmed that Qatar has been, and will remain, a supporter of the Lebanese Armed Forces, a national institution that plays a fundamental role in safeguarding the country's security, unity, and stability, pointing out that his discussions with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Lebanese Army Commander General Rodolphe Haykal addressed prospects for support and co-operation in the coming period. He said the talks also touched on the ongoing escalation in Lebanon, reiterating Qatar's condemnation of Israeli attacks on peacekeeping forces and Israeli violations of Lebanese territory, while stressing the need for all parties to implement UN Security Council Resolution 1701, for Israel to withdraw from all occupied areas, and for hostilities to end in accordance with existing understandings. Fraternal ties HE the Prime Minister reaffirmed Qatar's steadfast support for Lebanon's unity, sovereignty, security, and stability, and its commitment to standing with all segments of the Lebanese people, adding that Qatar continues its efforts through the five-nation group on Lebanon to bolster the country's security and stability and support the Lebanese Armed Forces.

He explained that, during their latest meeting in New York, the two sides explored a framework agreement for Qatar's contribution to developing Lebanon's energy sector. Since then, government and technical teams have continued their work, moving from considering various options to defining the foundations of a comprehensive, actionable project. The Lebanese PM reiterated his appreciation to HH the Amir, government, and people of Qatar for their steadfast support for Lebanon, affirming that the Lebanese people deeply value Qatar's contributions over the years, while noting that relations between the two countries are rooted in a longstanding bond of brotherhood, solidarity, and a shared commitment to building a better future for the Arab region based on cooperation, trust, and mutual interests.

Qatar pledges a lifeline for Lebanon's economy, power grid and reconstruction in the south. by: BASSEM MROUE, Associated Press Posted: Oct 16, 2026 / 09:25 AM EDT Updated: Oct 16, 2026 / 09:25 AM EDT BEIRUT (AP) - Qatar will help Lebanon revive its struggling economy, including by rehabilitating its crumbling electricity sector and supporting the future reconstruction of the country's south, the Qatari prime minister said Friday. Qatar will continue to support the Lebanese army "as a national institution that safeguards the country's security, unity and stability," Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani said after meeting in Beirut with his Lebanese counterpart Nawaf Salam. For years, Qatar has been a friendly country to Lebanon and a mediator for domestic and international political crises in the region. Qatar has also given tens of millions of dollars to the Lebanese army since Lebanon's economic meltdown began in 2019. The Qatari official said that QatarEnergy has reached an agreement with French company TotalEnergies to jointly develop a solar power plant in Lebanon as an initial project. He said that the aim is to develop a major investment project "that would benefit the Lebanese economy, as well as the Qatari companies and entities participating in it." Salam said that he will put the plans for Lebanon's electricity sector to the Lebanese Cabinet soon. "The Qatari side will fund, implement and activate the project without any cost on the Lebanese state," Salam said, adding that such a move is important because of Lebanon's financial crisis. Lebanon's state electricity company is one of the country's biggest sources of debt, hemorrhaging about $40 billion over the past decades with a bloated workforce and outdated infrastructure. The company provides only a few hours of electricity each day, and the state, until a year ago, had taken advances from the Central Bank when diesel fuel ran out. Earlier in the day, Qatar's prime minister met with Lebanon's president and parliamentary speaker and discussed with them the situation in southern Lebanon, where Israel captured dozens of villages and towns earlier this year during the latest Israel-Hezbollah war. Over the past several months, Israel has carried out large-scale demolitions in villages that its troops occupy. The latest Israel-Hezbollah war began when Hezbollah fired rockets into northern Israel in early March, two days after the U.S. and Israel began attacking Iran, the Lebanese group's main backer, on Feb. 28. The Qatari official said that Israel should withdraw from Lebanon and cease its attacks in the country. He said that Qatar is working in coordination with the United States to help lay the groundwork for future reconstruction in southern Lebanon, in a manner that would allow displaced people to return to their homes. About 1.2 million people were displaced in Lebanon at the height of the war. Most have returned home since a June ceasefire, but more than 300,000 remain displaced, according to the International Organization for Migration.

The Council of Ministers decided that the draft law be presented on the Qatar Legal Portal (Al Meezan) and the "Sharek" platform of the Civil Service and Government Development Bureau for ten days, to poll opinion on it, in preparation for referring it to legislative review in accordance with approved procedures.

The Council also reviewed the study prepared by the competent committee at the Ministry of Social Development and Family on the current state of digital safety for children and youth in the country, and decided to assign the ministry to take necessary measures in light of the results of that study, in coordination with the relevant authorities. The Council also approved a draft decision of the Minister of Environment and Climate Change to issue the radiation practice guide for nuclear gauges and well logging. The draft decision, prepared by the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change in cooperation with QatarEnergy, aims to establish an integrated regulatory framework for related radiation activities in accordance with safety standards issued by the International Atomic Energy Agency, and to define requirements, controls and responsibilities related to the possession, use, transport, storage and handling of radioactive sources, thereby enhancing oversight over them and ensuring the protection of workers, the public and the environment from the risks of radiation exposure.
