(MENAFN- The Peninsula) QNA
Madrid: The Qatari-Spanish relations are among the most prominent bilateral relations, which have been consolidated in recent years through mutual visits between senior officials in both countries.
Amir H H sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani's visit to Madrid constitutes a milestone in the path of the partnership between the State of Qatar and the Kingdom of Spain. The results of this important visit are expected to give a strong push to strengthen relations between the two friendly countries in all fields.
Secretary of International Policy and Development Cooperation in the Executive Committee of the ruling Socialist Workers' Party in Spain Hana Jalloul believes that Qatari-Spanish relations have developed significantly during the past period, not only in the economic field but in all fields.
In exclusive comments to Qatar News Agency (QNA) in Madrid, Jalloul said that the timing of H H the Amir's visit to Madrid is very appropriate in light of the developing relations between the two countries and the currently intertwined issues in the world that need to be discussed between leaders to reach solutions. At the same time, she expressed her hope for developing relations between the ruling party in Spain and the Qatari state. Jalloul explained that she, as a woman of Arab descent, is proud of the development she sees in the State of Qatar. She expressed her happiness when she sees Qatar's role in the world, in conflict resolution and multilateral mediation on various issues.
The Secretary of International Policy and Development Cooperation in the Executive Committee of the ruling Socialist Workers' Party in Spain praised the recent Shura Council elections in Qatar and the popular participation that resulted in the election of the first legislative council by direct vote in the country.
Jalloul also praised the recent steps taken by Qatar in the field of protecting foreign workers and the legislation that was approved regarding the minimum wage and the law on the exit and entry of foreign workers.
Spanish political analyst Javobo Murillo said that the Qatari-Spanish relations are very distinguished. The visit of H H the Amir to Spain is a great opportunity for the two countries, as they are moving in the same direction towards development in all fields and possess potentials in their exchanges that will constitute unparalleled relations.
Murillo stressed the importance of H H the Amir's current visit to Spain, pointing out that integration is the most prominent topic in this visit, adding that Qatar and Spain have the same economic and political capabilities to not only do a lot for their people but for the people of the region and the world.
He explained that Qatar — due to its location, importance, and role in the Middle East — and Spain, being one of the important countries in the Mediterranean basin, can play an important role in resolving issues related to those regions.
He pointed out that the talks between the two parties during the visit will certainly address the energy field, especially considering the developments that have taken place after the outbreak of the war in Ukraine last February, given that Spain has great potential in the energy field.
