Qatar and Turkey are countries that have stability, energy and economic power, qualities the two nations are seeking to take advantage of in order to improve their relations, the Deputy Prime Minister of Turkey Bülent Arınç said in an interview with Al-Sharq newspaper.

In the exclusive interview, Arınç said Qatar provides great opportunities for development and investment for Turkish companies which, in turn, can contribute to the urban boom taking place in Qatar; adding that he is in Doha to attend the Al-Jazeera Forum.

He also said that this visit gave him the chance to have important discussions addressing the level of Qatari-Turkish relations including economic issues, especially trade, noting that such relations were below the required level and that they look forward to increasing them.

Arınç also pointed out that his visit was an opportunity to exchange views about the situation in Syria and Egypt, noting that Turkey and Qatar are in agreement in terms of their outlook on the two issues and that they also addressed other regional issues.
