Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani will meet US President Donald Trump on 10 April in Washington, the state news agency QNA reported on 5 April.

Trump met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House on 21 March and his meeting with Qatari Emir will be followed by a meeting with Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed.

The White House said Trump would meet al-Thani to discuss ways to advance “common security and economic priorities” between the United States and Qatar.
