New Delhi, Nov 17 (KNN) External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar visited Doha for a series of high-level engagements aimed at strengthening the India–Qatar strategic partnership, with discussions covering trade, energy cooperation and regional developments.

The Minister met Qatar’s Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani.

“Reviewed key aspects of our Strategic Partnership including energy, trade, investment and people to people connect. Appreciate the exchange of views on Middle East/West Asia, regional and global developments”, Jaishankar updated on X.
