In his speech at the forum, Al Subaie emphasised that the State of Qatar, by adopting policies of economic openness and preventive diplomacy, plays a pivotal role in building regional partnerships and contributes to achieving stability and development through clean energy projects, economic connectivity, and pioneering environmental legislation. He noted major investments and national initiatives to support the transition towards sustainability and a circular economy. He stressed Qatar's continued intensive efforts, alongside the Arab Republic of Egypt and the United States of America, to mediate an end to the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people, which has resulted in thousands of civilian deaths and injuries, most of them women and children.
