Qatari Energy Minister Advocates for Politics-Free Energy
Qatari Energy Minister Saad Al-Kaabi highlighted the importance of establishing a global energy system that transcends politics, making energy a sector focused on security and stability, and not used as a weapon in conflicts. He called for the protection of energy infrastructure during times of conflict, emphasizing that targeting facilities poses a serious economic and military threat. He also pointed out that regional conflicts have led to a major energy crisis affecting about 20% of the world's supplies and causing billions of dollars in damages, with increasing risks to global energy security linked to geopolitical tensions. Al-Kaabi stressed that energy security should unite countries and keep them away from conflicts, emphasizing the need to protect energy flow to ensure the stability of global markets—especially as one billion people lack access to electricity and four billion depend on imported chemical fertilizers through the Gulf.
