The Qatari sheikh and the Spanish government have also sealed "a strategic union" through the signing of 12 agreements and memorandums of understanding in the areas of economy, trade, education, military and judicial cooperation, health, science and innovation. This partnership is likely to continue and grow in the future. As Abdalla Al-Hamar, Qatar's ambassador to Spain, told 20minutos, Doha wishes to "continue strengthening ties".
"Qatar considers Spain a friendly and close country, and we are sure that we will see even more cooperation over the years," Al-Hamar added.
