Qatar PM urges regional security framework after Iran war ‘wake-up call’

Qatar's Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani has called for a regional security framework involving Gulf countries and Iran following the recent war, which he described as a "wake-up call" for the region. Speaking at the Qatar Economic Forum during the 81st UN General Assembly in New York, Al Thani emphasized the need for collective security among Gulf countries and Iran, stating that the crisis has far-reaching effects beyond the region.

He stressed that Qatar and its regional partners are working towards such a framework and expressed hope that the conflict would lead to greater cooperation. Al Thani also announced the launch of the Doha Investment platform, aiming to manage and expand Qatar Investment Authority's domestic portfolio and attract private-sector participation, with potential infrastructure and real estate/hospitality projects valued over US$60 billion.
