Qatar’s Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani appointed an ambassador to the United Arab Emirates on Sunday, six years after the UAE severed all diplomatic and trade ties with Doha during the 2017 GCC crisis.
In a statement, the Amiri Diwan said the Qatari leader appointed “Dr. Sultan Salmeen Saeed Al Mansouri as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the United Arab Emirates.”
The move comes months after the two Gulf states announced the mutual reopening of diplomatic missions in Doha and Abu Dhabi, marking the final step to rapprochement to end the 2017 Gulf Cooperation Council crisis.
Qatar’s foreign ministry said the decision to reopen the embassies was “based on the Al-Ula Agreement, and the keenness of the two countries to strengthen bilateral relations,” referencing the historic 2021 accord that ended the region’s worst rift.
“The two sides affirm that this step comes as an embodiment of the will of the leaderships of the two countries, and in consolidation of the path towards joint Arab action, in a way that achieves the aspirations of the two brotherly peoples,” the statement added.
