The Foreign Policy Association has recognized Qatar's Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani for his efforts in mediation and international diplomacy.

 The honor was bestowed upon him at a ceremony in New York, where Qatar's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Sheikha Alya Ahmed bin Saif Al-Thani, received the medal on his behalf, Qatar News Agency (QNA) reported.

The association's president, Noel Lateef, praised the Amir's leadership and commitment to mediation, dialogue, and diplomatic engagement. 

He noted that the honor acknowledges the Amir's significant contributions to advancing international peace and security.

Sheikha Alya Ahmed bin Saif Al-Thani, in her acceptance remarks, conveyed the Amir's appreciation for the honor and highlighted Qatar's role as a mediator and advocate for peace.

 She emphasized that Qatar's foreign policy is guided by the principles of peaceful dispute resolution, respect for international law, and the protection of civilians.

Qatar's mediation efforts have been evident in various regions, including Afghanistan, Gaza, Darfur, Chad, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

 The country has also been involved in supporting Pakistan-led mediation efforts to facilitate dialogue between the United States and Iran.

The Amir's vision for Qatar's role in the world is centered around investing in human capital through education and promoting peaceful cooperation. 

This approach has established Qatar as a trusted and impartial mediator, earning the confidence of parties to conflicts.

Qatar's efforts in mediation and peacebuilding are complemented by its development and humanitarian efforts, aimed at helping countries emerge from conflict and lay the foundations for sustainable peace.
