Haiti - Qatar : Laurent Saint-Cyr meets with Prime Minister Al Thani
06/11/2025 08:34:39

Laurent Saint-Cyr, President pro tempore and Coordinator of the Transitional Council, on an official visit to Qatar to attend the Second World Summit on Social Development, from November 4th to 6, met earlier this week with Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the State of Qatar. It should be noted that Al Thani is also Chairman of the Qatar Fund for Development, a member of Qatar’s Supreme Council for Economic Affairs and Investment, and a member of the Qatari royal family.

Prime Minister Al Thani welcomed President Saint-Cyr and expressed his gratitude for Haiti’s participation in this forum, a symbol of the strengthening of bilateral relations between the two countries. He also expressed the solidarity of the Qatari people with Haiti following Hurricane Melissa.

The discussions focused on strengthening bilateral cooperation in several priority areas. Qatar reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the restoration of security in Haiti and confirmed its interest in contributing, alongside the United States, to the deployment of the Gang Supression Force (GSF), approved by the United Nations Security Council on September 30, 2025 (https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-45891-haiti-flash-the-security-council-has-voted-for-the-new-gang-repression-force.html).

The two leaders also discussed establishing meaningful partnerships in the social sector, particularly for youth reintegration and the construction of housing for members of the Haitian National Police, in order to provide a sustainable response to current social and economic challenges.

Both sides also agreed to continue the strategic dialogue initiated in Doha and to explore new avenues of cooperation in areas of mutual interest. In this context, Prime Minister Al-Thani expressed Qatar's interest in receiving and studying concrete cooperation projects related to national priorities identified by Haiti, in order to examine the specific modalities of its support.
