Qatar's Minister of State at the Foreign Ministry Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Al Khulaifi held a telephone conversation with Malian Foreign Minister Abdoulaye Diop on 30 April 2026. They reviewed bilateral cooperation and developments in Africa's Sahel region.
The Qatari Foreign Ministry reported that Al Khulaifi condemned attacks on military and civilian sites in Mali and conveyed Qatar's solidarity with the country and its population. The discussion is a dated statement of diplomatic support, not evidence of a newly signed security agreement.
