Qatari Foreign Minister Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani arrived in Khartoum late yesterday for talks with Sudanese officials on ways of enhancing bilateral relations.

During his two-day visit, the top Qatari diplomat will meet with the head of Sudan’s Sovereignty Council, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok, and other senior officials, according to the official news agency SUNA.

Last month, Al-Burhan visited Doha for talks with Qatar’s Emir, Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani.

Qatar’s investments in Sudan are estimated at $3.8 billion, according to the Sudanese Ministry of Investment.
