Qatar’s emir and Iran’s president discuss Hormuz and energy in Moscow

Qatar’s emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in Moscow on 27 October 2026 ahead of the Gas Exporting Countries Forum summit. Doha said their discussions included regional negotiations, the Strait of Hormuz and energy supplies.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and other officials from both delegations attended. Iranian state media also reported discussions on strengthening bilateral political and economic relations.

Qatar’s readout provides neither an operational commitment on navigation through the strait nor a timetable for renewed negotiations. The meeting establishes that contacts are continuing; it does not announce a regional agreement.
