Qatar’s Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani met Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam in Beirut on 16 October 2026. The Qatari Foreign Ministry said discussions covered bilateral ties, energy, investment and economic opportunities, along with regional developments and efforts to reduce tensions.
The agenda identifies sectors for further cooperation and possible joint projects. It does not mean that a new investment contract or energy project was finalized during the meeting. The talks form one part of Qatar’s wider series of high-level contacts during the Beirut visit.
