Egypt in advanced talks with Qatar for multi-billion dollar North Coast investment

Qatar is reportedly engaged in advanced discussions to invest $3.5 billion in a major tourism project along Egypt's Mediterranean coast, according to local Egyptian media. This potential move represents the latest support from a Gulf nation for the Egyptian economy, which has been grappling with disruptions stemming from ongoing regional conflicts. The prospective deal involves the development of land in one of Egypt's most prominent holiday destinations and could be finalized before the end of 2025. However, the precise location or specific land area involved has not yet been disclosed. This potential agreement follows a historic $35 billion investment from the United Arab Emirates earlier in 2024, which included the development of vast stretches of Egypt's North Coast. That UAE agreement, concluded in early 2024, proved crucial in helping Egypt navigate a two-year economic crisis, compounded by the repercussions of the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. The Qatari discussions also unfold at a time when direct tensions between Israel and Iran threaten to intensify pressure on Cairo, further underscoring the critical importance of securing continuous inflows of foreign investment. Under the anticipated agreement with Qatar, Doha is expected to provide Egypt with $1 billion immediately upon signing the deal, with the remaining amounts to be transferred over the subsequent 12 months, according to informed sources. Egyptian authorities had previously indicated their ambition to replicate the UAE's experience, which saw a significant $24 billion investment specifically in the development of the Ras El Hekma area.

Qatar engages daily with US to bring an end to Israel-Iran conflict, foreign ministry says

Qatar's top leadership is engaging daily with the United States to bring an end to the conflict between Iran and Israel, Qatari foreign ministry spokesperson Majed Al Ansari said, warning of the dangers of war on energy security in the region. 'We have been making all the possible communication between all the parties regionally and abroad. These talks between us have been about finding a way out of the rabbit hole when it comes to this escalation,' Al Ansari said. Al Ansari said that no demands have been exchanged between Israel and Iran, saying Doha and other regional countries are only holding calls at the moment in an attempt start negotiations, adding that Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani spoke to US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. He reiterated the Iranian position that Tehran will not negotiate under fire. Qatar shares the world's biggest gas field with Iran, the Qatari part of which is known as the North Field and the Iranian as South Pars. Neighboring Arab states are also some of the world's biggest oil exporters. 'We have been engaging daily with partners in the US to find a way out of this. There have been some positive statements about the commitment to the diplomatic measures and hopefully we can get back to them.' More background: Arab countries were supportive of talks between Tehran and Washington, with some being involved, ahead of Israel's strikes on Iran last week, Ansari said. In 2015, regional powerhouses like Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates opposed Iran and stood against the nuclear agreement between the Obama administration and Tehran. They have since mended their relationship with Iran and advocated for diplomacy between the Islamic Republic and the US. The spokesperson warned of the ramification of strikes on Iran in a region that 'cannot afford anymore escalation' He said that striking energy facilities in the Persian Gulf could have a negative effect on the markets. One third of the world's seaborne oil trade and 20 percent of natural gas trade passes through the Persian Gulf.
