Japan’s ambassador to Qatar, <name>, extends his admiration for His Highness the Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani’s recent address to the United Nations General Assembly. The address, which emphasized dialogue and diplomacy, respect for sovereignty and people’s rights, and fair solutions based on international law, is in line with Japan’s dedication to a rules-based international order. The ambassador also pays tribute to the past contributions of His Highness the Father Amir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani.
Japan and Qatar share a common belief that lasting peace depends on the United Nations Charter and the peaceful resolution of disputes. Additionally, both nations stress the importance of preserving freedom of navigation and maritime security, including in the Strait of Hormuz. Regarding the Palestinian issue, Japan expresses deep concern over the severe humanitarian crisis. A fair and lasting resolution, however, necessitates a two-state solution that aligns with relevant UN resolutions and international law.
Japan holds a long-standing friendship with Qatar and acknowledges the country’s significant role in mediation, humanitarian efforts, development, and collaboration with the United Nations. The ambassador commits to upholding and promoting a free and open international order based on the rule of law, including sovereignty, territorial integrity, and freedom of navigation.
Japan remains dedicated to cooperating closely with Qatari leadership and the global community to support peaceful resolutions, uphold international norms, and encourage dialogue over violence.
