Qatar’s investments in Germany stand between €25 billion and €35 billion, making it the third largest investor in Germany among the Arab countries, Stephan Weil, the Prime Minister of the German state of Lower Saxony, said in Doha on Sunday.
Qatar is also Germany’s third largest trade partner in the Gulf region, he added.
“Qatar is of great importance to the German economy,” he said at the Qatar-German Business Meeting along with Qatar Chamber officials in Doha.
Qatar Chamber hosted the meeting in cooperation with the German Bureau for Industry and Commerce in the presence of German Ambassador to Qatar HE Hans-Udo Muzel and Qatar Chamber’s Director General Saleh bin Hamad al Sharqi and board member Dr Khalid bin Klefeekh al Hajri.
Talking about Lower Saxony, the PM said the German state is known for technology and is home of several plants of auto giant Volkswagen, which has two representatives from Qatar in its board of directors.
Lower Saxony’s capital Hanover, he added, is famous for its industrial exhibitions.
Weil said the visit of the German delegation was aimed at reviewing cooperation in all fields with the Qatari side.
“The businessmen in Lower Saxony, which is the second largest state in Germany with a population of 8 million and GDP of $330 billion, are interested in investing in Qatar,” he said.
