Qatar and France: Key Ties

The visit of French President Emmanuel Macron to Qatar reaffirmed the strengthening of bilateral relations, particularly in the economic, investment, security, and defense sectors. During discussions between Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and Macron, ways to expand cooperation were explored, including trade in goods and investments in energy and technology sectors. Trade between the two countries reached 6.4 billion riyals in 2025, with a trade deficit of 1.5 billion riyals. Long-term agreements include natural gas supply and mutual Qatari-French investments, as well as support for initiatives aimed at maintaining the stability of energy supply, which helps reduce energy costs in Europe—especially France—and underscores Qatar’s role as a mediator in resolving regional crises such as the Strait of Hormuz.
