Washington, D.C., President Donald J. Trump has formally reaffirmed the United States’ commitment to the security of the State of Qatar, issuing a presidential directive that underscores the strategic partnership between the two nations.

The statement confirms that Qatar remains designated as a major non-NATO ally, a status that facilitates defense cooperation, military training, and access to U.S. security assistance. The directive aligns with longstanding bilateral agreements and reflects Qatar’s role in promoting regional stability, counterterrorism efforts, and energy security.

This move reinforces the U.S. position in the Gulf region and signals continued support for Qatar’s sovereignty and defense capabilities amid evolving geopolitical dynamics.
